This is one of the most hysterical musicals ever written. ( )

Nunsense is a musical comedy about five nuns putting on a show to earn enough money to bury the rest of the sisters in their order. The nuns all died from food poisoning except for five nuns, but with so many sisters dying at once the congregation did not have enough funds to bury them all. The unburied sisters are being kept in the freezer until additional funds can be made.
The group consists of the Mother Superior, her second-in-command, a mouthy show stealer, a nun suffering amnesia, and a sweet-tempered fledgling nun. The show is hilarious when pulled together with the right ensemble. ( )

I've played the Mother Superior twice, so I have two copies of it. You'd think it would be easy to do a show the second time, but what happens is, you look a the lines and say, "Jeepers, I know this already," because it's so familiar, but actually, you don't. It's great fun to do, and I have fun people to do it with, but one day it's going to kill me. I get bruised falling off the bench (or rather, I get bruised trying to not fall off the bench) and have those migraine lightshow episodes after each show. I don't know if my husband will let me go through that again ... if I wanted to.
