Many styles of dance are used in Nuncrackers. Although the dances are meant to look "amateurish", you do need to have at least a little dance experience.
Nuncrackers: The Nunsense Christmas Musical is the first “TV Special” taped by the sisters in their convent basement studio for Cable Access. It stars the nuns you love plus Father Virgil and some of Mt. Saint Helen’s most talented students.
Season
