Nunsense is one of the most successful Off-Broadway shows in the history of musical theatre and is
one that Spirit of Newfoundland also toured in Ireland. Featuring a remarkable cast of zany nuns, this
hysterical musical comedy is an adventure from start to finish. When botulism killed most of the order,
there wasn’t enough money to bury them as Reverend Mother Superior (Sheila Williams), spent the
money on a VCR and camcorder. So the sisters have to pull off a burial fundraiser for the dead nuns
who are stored in the freezer. This riotous revue packed with hilarious, show-stopping song and
dance numbers also features Shelley Neville, Dana Parsons, Robyn Sears and Cheri Carroll.
