Nunsense is a musical comedy by Dan Goggin. The original Off-Broadway production opened December 1985, running for 3,672 performances and becoming the second-longest-running Off-Broadway show in history. Five of the 19 surviving Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, Sister Julia accidentally killed the other fifty-two residents of the convent while they were off playing bingo. With no money in the kitty to pay for the burials they decide to stage a variety show in the School auditorium to raise the necessary funds. Participating in the project are Mother Superior Mary Regina, a former circus performer who can not resist the spotlight; her competitive but dignified rival, second-in-command Sister Mary Hubert; Sister Robert Anne, a streetwise nun from Brooklyn; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is determined to be the world's first ballerina nun; and wacky, childlike Sister Mary Amnesia, who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head. The entertainment that they present includes solo star turns, madcap dance routines, and an audience quiz.
