MainStage Irving-Las Colinas will open its 2021-2022 season with Dan Goggin's Nunsense, a sinfully funny musical featuring catchy songs, irreverent comedy, and the madcap misadventures of five nuns!
Directed by Michael Serrecchia, music directed by Jesse Fry and choreographed by Megan Kelly Bates, the musical will run November 5-20 in the Dupree Theatre at the Irving Arts Center. Single tickets range from $25-$32 and are also on sale now at www.IrvingArtsCenter.com. Patrons with ticketing questions should contact the Irving Arts Center Box Office at 972-252-2787.

Join the Little Sisters of Hoboken (well, what's left of them, that is) for a hysterically haphazard variety show to raise emergency funds for the convent. After a bad batch of Sister Julia - Child of God's vichyssoise killed off fifty-two of the nuns, the survivors emptied the coffers to bury the deceased but ran out of cash before the last few bodies could be laid to rest (don't worry - they're in the kitchen freezer). Will their prayers be answered before the health department discovers their secret? With hilarious talent acts, tongue-in-cheek musical numbers, and help from the audience, Nunsense has blessed theatregoers worldwide for over 30 years and is sure to have you rolling with laughter! A heavenly delight that's sinfully funny!
