Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre to host 'Nunsense' in March

Nunsense will be the debut show from Broken Banjo Productions, and involves a convent of nuns hilariously trying to raise funds for the burial of fellow members of their order.

Broken Banjo Productions founder and Nunsense director Sam English said the musical comedy will be a fun and entertaining romp when it premieres at Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre next month.

"The cast have had a ball putting this together [when we've been able to], and I've been wanting to bring adult-orientated theatre back to Bathurst for quite a while," Mr English said.

"We've also got another show in the works, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, for later in the year, and it's all about providing further options for locals to get creative on stage.
