Production Summary

Winner of four Outer Critics Circle Awards including Best Off Broadway Musical in its original New York production, this hilarious international hit has played to rapturous audiences across the globe.

When convent cook, Sister Julia (Child of God) accidently poisons 52 of the nuns with her vicious Vichyssoise soup, the remaining sisters compile a madcap benefit concert to raise funds to bury the dead.

Meet Reverend Mother Regina, a former circus performer; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia, whose memory was wiped when a crucifix fell on her head. Featuring star turns, tap dancing and comic surprises, this show has become an international phenomenon with more than 5000 productions worldwide. Do not miss highly-acclaimed Hessle Theatre Company in their zaniest musical yet!
