Meet the cast of "Nunsense: The Musical" at the Roxy Theatre April 24 & 25, 7 p.m.!

Theresa Linder returns to the Roxy stage as Sister Hubert, having previously played Clairee in "Steel Magnolias" and Ethel Chauvenet in "Harvey." Prior to those roles, Theresa played Julie in "Carousel" with the Canton Civic Opera and various roles in other musicals.

Theresa is a retired banker, still working two days a week, and loves to spend time with family, walk, work in her flower beds, read and listen to books, and sing.

She loves that Sister Hubert "tries to be understanding and dignified, but with a little encouragement is not afraid to have a good time."

"I love that she gets to declare, 'With God all things are possible!'," Theresa said.
She thinks the entire cast is going to blow people away! "Rachel is an outstanding Mother Superior! Genevieve has a great Jersey accent! Savanna is sweet yet strong, so can easily fit the character of Sister Leo. Then there's Kim who wonderfully plays Sister Amnesia," she said, adding, "God bless Lise abnd Thommy for their patienbce and encouragement to all of us!"

“Nunsense” is a hilarious spoof about the misadventures of five nuns trying to manage a fundraiser. Sadly, the rest of the sisterhood died from botulism after eating vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia Child of God. Thus, the remaining nuns – ballet-loving Sister Leo, streetwise Sister Robert Anne, befuddled Sister Mary Amnesia, the Mother Superior Sister Regina, and mistress of the novices Sister Mary Hubert – stage a talent show to raise the money to bury their dearly departed.

“Nunsense: The Musical” in a special fundraising event for The Minerva Community Charitable Fund, a 501(c)3, was established in 2004 and providing grant funds to support a wide variety of projects benefiting the Minerva area. All proceeds from the event will support the work of programs and organizations that are making Minerva a better place to live and work.

Tickets for the event are $25 per person and are available at the Minerva Area Chamber of Commerce, 203 N. Market St., Minerva; online at https://minervachamber.ticketspice.com/nunsense-the...; or at the door.

Doors open at 6 p.m., and homemade desserts will be available by donation.

The Minerva Community Charitable Fund is excited to present “Nunsense: The Musical” in a special fundraising event on Friday and Saturday, April 24 and 25, 7 p.m., at the Roxy Theatre!

She thinks Kim Franz as Sister Amnesia is a "show stopper" and is going to blow the audience away. "She's hilarious!" Rachel said.

Richards has appeared across a wide range of platforms, including BlazeTV’s Normal World, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, and Fox News Radio Network’s The Tom Shillue Show. He has also released a Dry Bar Comedy special and can be heard on Pandora and the Weather Channel’s “Top 10.”

Audiences may also recognize him from the feature film Don’t Suck, starring alongside Matt Rife and Jamie Kennedy, available on Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Apple TV.

A veteran of multiple USO and Armed Forces Entertainment tours, Richards has performed for U.S. troops stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan, and more than 15 countries worldwide. His work has also been featured in Newsweek.

In addition to his stand-up career, Richards has opened for legendary acts such as The Temptations and The Four Tops. His fourth comedy album, Double Down, is available on iTunes and at derekrichards.com. He is also the author of Whiskey, Cancer & Bad Decisions, a candid and humorous memoir detailing his journey through cancer.

Tickets are general admission, with a limited number of front-row/VIP seats, and can be purchased online at www.krackpotscomedy.com/shows/353746
