Show Info:
Nuncrackers is a high-energy slapstick musical comedy that’s just right for the holidays, featuring your favorite sisters from ‘Nunsense’, as well as Father Trott and an ensemble of children and adults. This show is high on big laughs, big musical numbers, and audience interaction. Show Dates are November 5-7, 12-14, and 19-20.

 

Characters:
Reverend Mother – The leader of the convent, though she often finds herself in over her head. A flustered former circus performer who tries to keep everyone together.

Sister Robert Anne – One tough nun from Brooklyn, with an underlying heart of gold.
Sister Mary Paul (Sister Amnesia) – A recovering amnesiac, she still seems a little vacant. Most of Sister Mary Paul’s songs are country/western in style.
Sister Mary Leo – The youngest of the group. Leo also serves as the voice of Sister Mary Annette, a brash, foul-mouthed puppet.
Father Virgil Manly Trott – Sister Leo’s brother, a former singer and radio host.
The Mount Saint Helens Students – Middle school-aged boys & girls. Must be comfortable on stage and able to sing and dance.
