“Nunsense,” the spring musical presented by Ascension Community Theatre, will be performed on Feb. 24-27 and March 3-5. The evening performances are at 7 p.m. and Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. Ascension Community Theatre is at 823 Felicity St., Gonzales.
“Nunsense” follows the Little Sisters of Hoboken, who find themselves in a financial panic when the convent cook inadvertently poisons 52 sisters. To raise funds for their interment, the remaining sisters put on a variety show that results in one of the wackiest musical comedies that will leave you laughing all the way to the confessional. Featuring book, lyrics and music by Dan Goggin, “Nunsense” was named Best Off-Broadway Musical and has become an international phenomenon.
