Dan Goggin Directs Nunsense Tour

BRIDGEPORT, CT: Playhouse on the Green is proud to present SISTER ROBERT ANNE'S CABARET CLASS, a "One-Nun-sense Musical Event" by "Nunsense" composer Dan Goggin, for 4 regular performances and one special Gala evening from Friday, July 10 through Saturday, July 17, 2009.

Sister Robert Anne's Cabaret Class is a celebration of the songs Sister Robert Anne has debuted in the six "Nunsense" musicals with two new songs from the upcoming seventh "Nunsense" called Nunset Boulevard: The Nunsense Hollywood Bowl Show. This sneak preview at Playhouse on the Green will mark the first public performance of the show prior to playing venues around the country. When award-winning composer Dan Goggin discovered that Sister Robert Anne had 17 songs in the "Nunsense" Musical series he and musical director, Leo Carusone, realized "that was enough for an evening of its own." And what could be better in these tough economic times than a "One-Nun-sense Musical Event"!

Dan Goggin directs Deborah Del Mastro as Sister Robert Anne. Leo P. Carusone is "Our Musical Director, Father Carusone, a Franciscan Priest". Richard Latta is Lighting Designer. Patti Rice is Stage Manager.

Adult single tickets are $32. Senior Citizens tickets (65 and older) are $29. Tickets for those 21 years and younger are $18. Tickets can be purchased 24/7 on-line at www.playhouseonthegreen.org or by calling TheaterMania at (866) 811-4111 (phone hours 9-9 weekdays, 10-6 weekends).

The evening concludes with an exclusive post-show champagne and hors d'oeuvres reception with Goggin, Deborah Del Mastro, and Leo P. Carusone.
