Nunsense, the international smash musical, centers on The Little Sisters of Hoboken who operate Mount Saint Helen's School in Hoboken, New Jersey. The nuns face a dilemma when their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, accidentally poisons 52 of the Sisters with tainted vichyssoise. The remaining Sisters hold a talent show fundraiser to give them a proper burial. Featured songs include “Nunsense is Habit Forming,” “So You Want to be a Nun,” “Tackle that Temptation With a Timestep” and “Holier than Thou.”
