Nunsense, filmed live before an off-Broadway audience in 1993, is good, clean fun filled with enthusiastic performers and well-done songs. You don't need to have attended Catholic school to enjoy Nunsense. There are a few pokes at the Catholic religion, but Nunsense is mainly a gentle send-up of the convent way of life, told through the lens of a zany musical comedy.
The Little Sisters of Hoboken display their divine talents in a zany benefit revue. In an effort to raise money for their fallen Sisters--unfortunate victims of a convent cooking accident--Mother Superior (The Golden Girls' Rue McClanahan) and her order of eccentric and endearing nuns show the lighter side of being Catholic. With riotous dance numbers, show-stopping songs and side-splitting wit, you'll swear Nunsense was heaven-sent! This video of the long-running hit musical features scenes not included in the television broadcast. Starring Rue McClanahan, Christine Anderson, Semina De Laurentis, Christine Toy.
