Nunsense II: The Second Coming
Nunsense II: The Second Coming takes place six weeks after the hilarious events seen in Nunsense, when the sisters presented their first benefit to help bury their dearly departed sisters killed in a tragic cooking accident. Having been “bitten by the theater bug” the sisters are back to present a “thank-you” show for all the people who supported them in the past. Things get to off to a rousing start as the sisters sing Nunsense, the Magic Word, but before long chaos erupts. Two Franciscans come to claim Sister Mary Amnesia (who has won the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes) as one of their own. At the same time the nuns hear that a talent scout is in the audience to see them strut their stuff. From the riotous bingo game run by Sister Amnesia, to the hilarious duet What Would Elvis Do?, to the rousing finale, There’s Only One Way to End Your Prayers and That’s to Say Amen!, this show will have you rolling in the aisles!
