NUNSENSE to Close Out Season 43 at Roxy Regional Theatre in Clarksville

The hit musical comedy "Nunsense" opens at the Roxy Regional Theatre's temporary home at 114 Public Square on Friday, June 19, at 7:00pm.

In this zany musical which has become an international phenomenon, the Little Sisters of Hoboken are in dire need of funds after discovering that their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned fifty-two of the sisters.  Hilarity ensues when the five remaining sisters decide that the best way to raise the money for the burials is to put on a variety show.

Directed and choreographed by Jeri Dickey with music direction by Amy Frederick, "Nunsense" stars Jama Bowen as Reverend Mother Regina, a former circus performer; Jackie Ostick as Sister Mary Hubert, the Mistress of Novices; Brooklynn Morales as Sister Robert Anne, a streetwise nun from Brooklyn; Melissa Goldberg as Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and Chloe LaMar as the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia, the nun who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head.

Produced in part by Dr. Joseph & Nancye Britton, with additional funding support provided by Stacey Streetman and Gary & Linda Shephard, "Nunsense" is written by Dan Goggin and presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals, www.concordtheatricals.com.
