Bringing you local theater since 1959

OUR MOST RECENT PRODUCTION: NUNSENSE!

Audience reactions

“Saw Sunday’s matinee and enjoyed every minute. No need to be familiar with Catholicism, nuns, or the story being told. Many contemporary references and humorous connections to familiar songs, movies, and characters. Great, easy to hear and understand, lyrics. Fabulous show. Don’t miss it!”

“Make sure you do not miss Nunsense at the Town Hall Theater!! It’s wonderful in every way!!”

“We saw Nunsense on its opening night and were blown away by the talent, fun, musicality, and staging of this fun musical. There was so much talent on that stage. If you haven’t considered getting tickets for this great production, please reconsider. They should be sold out every night and will be if the word spreads about how much talent was in full evidence last night! Get your tickets right away. What a treat this was!”

Middlebury Community Players presented our Spring 2026 production, Nunsense, by Dan Goggin at Town Hall Theater April 24 through May 3, 2026. The production was directed by Peter Kristoph with music direction by Annette Franklin and choreography by Kendra Gratton, who also served as assistant director. Dora Greven stage managed, assisted by Meg Kennedy, and Kush Sharma produced, mentored by Mary Longey.

The cast included Avery Cutroni, Christina Dewar, Michelle Fico, Maggie Gates, and Jillian Torres.

Nunsense features five good-hearted, well-intentioned female characters who just happen to be nuns! When 52 sisters are accidentally poisoned by the convent’s cook, the remaining five nuns of the Little Sisters of Hoboken put on a musical revue to raise money for the funerals of four still-unburied sisters. Highlighting their “secret talents” from their pre-convent lives, they sing, dance, and entertain their way through a series of vaudeville-like numbers, often with great comic effect.
