[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 72643, member: 1991"] A stage play cam out in Australia called "Nunsense" - I don't know if it was ever performed in the US. It's set in a Catholic girls school in Sydney, run by a convent occupied by a wide range of nuns from different backgrounds. It was very funny but also done very lovingly. Although I didn't go to a convent school I still 'recognised' a lot of the characters - the larrikin nun, who would do impressions with her wimple; the older, softly-spoken, shy nun who would speak really softly except to occasionally screech, "CAN YOU HEAR ME UP THE BACK? ((...oh, good...))" - and the Mother Superior, trying to rule them all with a rod of iron, even when faced with the rather irreverent recipe book that someone thought would be a good fundraiser - "John the Baptist salad - it's a head of lettuce on a silver platter" and Mary Magdalene tarts. A lot of RCs went to see it and absolutely loved it. I knew a lot of nuns who went to see it as well - also loved it. But that recipe book... Marg [/QUOTE]
