Basically the original Nunsense with all of the characters being portrayed by male musical comedy performers. Think of it as “Mrs. Doubtfire enters the Convent.” Nunsense begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters, and they are in dire need of funds for the burials. The sisters decide that the best way to raise the money is to put on a variety show, so they take over the school auditorium. Featuring star turns, tap and ballet dancing, an audience quiz, and comic surprises, this show has become an international phenomenon. To quote the New York Times: “A change of habit, boy oh, boy!”
“ONCE” THE MUSICAL COMES TO LARGO
by photojournalist Jayne Drooger
My first visit to Central Park Performing Arts Center will be a memorable one! When I heard The Eight O'Clock Theatre was putting on a production of “Once “ I knew I had to see this show! Having seen and fallen in love with the movie when it was first released, not to mention the music. I hoped they would do a worthy job and I was not disappointed.
The actors/musicians are all local volunteers. There are 13 cast members playing 29 instruments, some of which they have never played before and each volunteers 150-200 hours to make this show happen. The set design is simple yet complex in the lighting detail. It is truly a feast for the senses. The show not only includes award winning music; An Oscar for “Falling Slowly”, a Grammy and an Olivier, but is also filled with passion and humor.
Story Synopsis
“On the streets of Dublin, an Irish musician and a Czech immigrant are drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship and collaboration quickly evolves into a powerful but complicated love story, underscored by emotionally charged music. “
The show runs for the next two weekends. Please do yourself a favor and see this one.
