Casting has been announced for the 25th anniversary revival of Dan Goggin’s Nunsense, which will play a limited Off-Broadway engagement at the Cherry Lane Theatre, June 15 – July 18. Goggin will direct.

The musical, which debuted at the Cherry Lane in 1985, follows the escapades of five nuns from the Little Sisters of Hoboken who realize that one of their own, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned to death 52 fellow nuns in the convent while the quintet was off playing Bingo. The show’s musical numbers include “Nunsense is Habit-Forming,” “So You Want to be a Nun,” “The Dying Nun Ballet,” “Baking with the BVM” and “Holier Than Thou.”

The cast will star Bonnie Lee as Reverend Mother Mary Regina, Bambi Jones as Sister Mary Hubert, Maria Montana as Sister Robert Anne, Stephanie Wahl as Sister Mary Leo, and Jeanne Tinker as Sister Mary Amnesia.
