Nov. 3-11: Springfield Players performs ‘Nunsense Vegas Revue’

The Springfield Community Players’ final performance of their 2017 season is Nunsensations: The Nunsense Vegas Revue. The performances are held at the Springfield Community Players Studio on 165 South St. in Springfield.

Performances are 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturdays Nov. 3, 4 and 10, 11 and with a 2 p.m. afternoon matinee on Sunday, Nov. 5.

Nunsensations takes the audience on a journey to a club in Las Vegas, where the sisters have convinced Mother Superior to perform, following a generous offer from a parishioner. If the sisters agree to perform at the Pump Room at the Mystique Motor Lodge in Las Vegas, they will receive a $10,000 donation to the school. In this tale, the sisters get a taste of  show-biz like never before.
