Introduction
Winner of the Outer Critics' Circle awards for the best off-Broadway musical and for the best book and best music, Nunsense begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters, and they are in dire need of funds for the burials. The sisters decide that the best way to raise the money is to put on a, variety show, so they take over the school auditorium.
