Mosinee Community Theatre will present their summer production of Nunsense at the Creske Center Auditorium, in Mosinee High School, on July 22-24, 2011. Tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for college students or students of life over the age of 55, and $8 for those in high school or younger.

Musical theater can come to us by many different roads. Much of it is written directly for the stage, like Wausau Community Theatre's upcoming Oklahoma!, but a lot of musicals are adapted from other works. Man of La Mancha, coming in November, also from Wausau Community Theatre, is based on a 1959, non-musical teleplay called I, Don Quixote, which, in turn, was based on Miguel de Cervantes’ novel Don Quixote. Increasingly, we’re seeing films adapted into musicals, like Central Wisconsin Area Community Theater's season opener, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and Central Wisconsin Children’s Theatre’s recent double run of Footloose. Other shows are even less traditional. Evita, coming in August from the Everest Academy for the Arts, is based on a concept album by the composer.
Nunsense, though, takes the idea of "adapted from another medium" to a whole new level. Read Full Article −>
