NOTES FROM THE DIRECTOR

Did you ever want to be a Nun for a day? ..Me neither, but if I did, these areprobably the kind of nuns I would want to be. "NUNSENSE II" is a delightful mixtureof comedy, parody, compassion and irreverence. It is not so much a sequel to as it isa continuation of "NUNSENSE I". It picks up where we left off.

Some people think Nuns are mean and insensitive and taht just isn't true.Why, ... these Nuns are just about the funnest folkds you will ever meet. They reallyknow how to kick up their heels and live ... so pay attention, you may learn a thing ortwo. Each of our five sisters is bigger than life with her own special style ofpersonality and humor. But underneath they display the common bonds that we aspeople all share, and we can all relate to. So enjoy the show and, hopefully, if we'vedone our job, you'll feel better when it is over.

Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado ...West Valley Light Opera presents ..."NUNSENSE 11.""Nun with the show!"

Tino Cecilio

A BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR ORDER

The order of the Little Sisters of Hoboken was founded in the seventh century bySaint Wilfred, a bishop of England. He established the first convent and school knownas the Wilfred Academy. His motto was, "We don't teach beauty, we radiate it!" Manyyears later, a small group of pioneering sisters set out for America to establish a moth-erhouse in Cleveland. but they got off the plane in Newark by mistake. The order was"found" by the Newark Airport Police and the new motherhouse was establishd inHoboken, New Jersey. It was at that time that the Order of St. Wilfred elected tochange the name to the Little Sisters of Hoboken and they have been affectionatelyknown as the "Little Hobos" ever since. It was from this convent that Sister MaryRegina, Sister Mary Hubert & Sister Robert Anne set sail for the Mediterranean toestablish the leper colony. Today the order has both nuns and brothers as members- all doing various good works in the Diocese of Newark. They also operate Mt. St.Helen's School in Hoboken.

A NOTE ABOUT THE CHARACTERS

Sister Mary Regina, A native of Ireland, is to the outside world a model MotherSuperior. But to those who know her, she is an outrageous quick-witted soul whoknows how to get a laugh. She tries to convince you that she is strict, but everyoneknows that her "bark is worse than her bite".

Sister Mary Hubert is a kind person who always tries to be understanding anddiplomatic. She teaches the Novices the ground rules, and is supposed to be dignified.But with the slightest bit of encouragement, she is ready to kick up her heels.

Sister Robert Anne is a tough, streetwise nun who has a heart of gold. All the kidsadore her because she speaks their language. And she can hit a baseball "out of thepark".

Sister Mary Amnesia is the picture of innocence. She cannot remember her pastand so looks at each new day with a childlike joy.

Sister Mary Leo had been an aspiring dancer before she entered the convent andis always eager to display her talent. She is very impressionable because she isyoung and can easily be led astray.

OUR CASTPrior to entering the Convent:

Sister Mary Regina was Marge HandSister Mary Hubert was Beverly Olivier-Blount & Tammy NelsonSister Robert Anne was Dana ManfrediSister Mary Amnesia was Ruth E. MullinsSister Mary Leo was Andrea GriffithSister Mary Go-Round (Swing) was Kristy Hughes

In her "spare"time, Fay is a piano and organ teacher, choral director, churchorganist, and manages to stay active by keeping step with her three young, veryactive, very musical grandsons. It is a great pleasure to have such a musical talent asFay willing to travel so far in order to be on our Staff. We hope she will return soon.

Nancy Kwong - Choreographer Nancy's talents are very famil-iar to our regulars for this will be her seventh WVLO terpsichoreandisplay; her most recent theatrical production was "Gypsy" last fall;but her "best" production to date has been her son, CameronAustin, born on Nov. 22, 1995. She started the first of her fiveperformances with us in 1980 in "Good News" and has beeneither performing or choreographing ever since. She has alsochoreographed for Gaslighter Theater in Campbell, SCP, &Theatreworks in Palo Alto. Nancy received her BA from CSU @
