Center Stage Theatre to Bring NUNSENSE A-MEN! to the Stage This September

Nunsense A-Men! is coming to Center Stage Theatre in Shelton September 3 - September 19.

Directed and choreographed by Katie Sedlock, the show, written by Dan Goggin, follows a fundraiser put on by the Little Sisters of Hoboken to raise money to bury sisters accidently poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia (Child of God). Nunsense A-Men! is the original Nunsense show with all of the characters being portrayed by male musical comedy performers. Think of it as "Mrs. Doubtfire enters the Convent." Done totally seriously, this show is, to quote a critic, "no drag". A whole new layer of comedy surfaces with lines like "The guys in the old neighborhood still can't believe I became a nun!"

Performances run Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, Sundays at 2pm and a special Thursday evening performance at 7pm on September 16 with adult tickets available for $30 and students tickets for $15.
