Great theatre this is not, but the sold-out audience was totally delighted, and that is the goal of this type of show. If farce is your thing, go, see, enjoy! (BTW---it can get hot in the covered outdoor theatre so be sure to hydrate!)

This is silly theater just for the fun of it. It is a hilarious behind the habit look of what to many is a mysterious way of life as the nuns let their hair down (metaphorically speaking) and cut loose. All denominations welcome but tickets are going fast!

Well-Worn 'Nunsense' at Porthouse Theatre Doesn't Quite Hit the Heavens

An entertaining musical with active audience participation, the Porthouse production of Nunsense captivated the audience members; many nodded and laughed as the performers ricocheted Catholic jokes and puns. Behind Goggin’s comical, farcical, double-entendre, and lighted-hearted façade are black (and morbid) humor and subtle criticism of conservativeness and patriarchy in the Catholic Church (and beyond). A spoof is one of the best cures for people and society, and Nunsense—which has produced its six sequels—continues to serve that purpose.
