Nunsense A-men!

Nunsense A-men! keeps the drag on the nuns and not on the audience. The nuns are a little butch, but the whirlwind of energy and jokes that are never more off-color than, say, ecru, keep things hopping in this well-paced giggle-fest. Jerry Lee’s turn as Sister Amnesia is a short-term-memory exercise in scene stealing and all the nuns are in fine voice. A balm for the soul of parochial school survivors, Center Stage Productions’ Nunsense A-men! is theatrical cotton candy—but it’s really good cotton candy.
The Studio Theatre, 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday; $22-24. The Studio Theatre, 1028 R Street, (916) 446-2668; www.centerstageca.com. Through April 15.
