It's Habit Forming! Nunsense Opening at the ALFRESCO ARTS CENTER
Alfresco Productions, presents the musical comedy NUNSENSE, running May 15-17.
Nunsense with book, music and lyrics by Dan Goggin, started out as a cabaret act in New York City, and spawned into an international sensation, complete with six sequels. The plot lends for great laughs: Five out of 52 nuns remain alive at the Little Sisters of Hoboken, where their cook Sister Julia, Child of God, accidentally killed the rest with her vichyssoise. Upon discovering the disaster, Mother Superior decides they need to raise funds to bury the nuns. With four nuns in the freezer and no funds, the five remaining nuns decide to stage a variety show in order to raise the money to let the dead runs rest in peace. What ensues is an audience pleasing fun filled show with outrageous songs, dancing and an audience quiz.
The show is being directed by Dr. Bill McMasters, choreographed by Lisa Garcia Fensterman, with musical direction by Jeremy Champion. The cast is led by Melissa Pennell Kimble as Reverend Mother. Also in the cast of five are Therese Melnykov as Sister Mary Hubert, Jennifer Tate as Sister Mary Amnesia, Amy Meyer Wilson as Sister Robert Anne and London Kimble as Sister Mary Leo.
Tickets for each show ($10) may be purchased through the website at www.alfrescoproductions.com, through any cast member, at the Garden Gate Restaurant, and if not sold out, tickets will be available at the door.
