The surviving Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook accidentally killed fifty-two residents of the convent with tainted soup. Upon discovering the disaster, Mother Superior had a vision in which she was told to start a greeting card company to raise funds for the burials. The greeting cards were an enormous success and, thinking there was plenty of money, she bought a home entertainment system for the convent, leaving her with no money to pay for the last four burials.

With remaining deceased nuns on ice in the deep freeze, the sisters decide to stage a variety show in the Mount Saint Helen’s School auditorium to raise the needed funds. Participating in the project are Mother Superior Mary Regina, a former circus performer who cannot resist the spotlight; her competitive but dignified rival, second-in-command Sister Mary Hubert; Sister Robert Anne, a streetwise nun from Brooklyn; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is determined to be the world’s first ballerina-nun; and wacky, childlike Sister Mary Amnesia, who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head. The entertainment that they present includes solo star turns, madcap dance routines, and a wild surprise turn of events that will tickle your funny bone!!

The Black Maskers annually perform one play in the fall and a musical in the spring, much to the delight of our community. This one sounds like a heavenly endeavor for hearty laughs.
