The producers of the upcoming Barrow-Civic Theatre production of "Nunsense" are trying to have a little fun with a fundraiser.
The main premise of the comedic musical is nuns holding a variety show to raise money for the funerals of their sisters who were accidentally poisoned by their cook.
So the producers thought... why not create a cookbook?
This tongue-in-cheek idea asks community members for their favorite recipes (please no poisonous ingredients) to produce a cookbook that can be sold at the Franklin theatre.
"Being that we are a community theater, I would love to have members of the community participate," said Brooke Lawrie, one of the show's producers and cast members.
Lawrie asks that folks who love to cook or love the theater to email recipes to [email protected] by April 3, 2022.
"Your name in the cookbook would be first name, last initial, and town. Unless you prefer to remain anonymous," Lawrie said.
Questions about purchasing a cookbook can be directed to the email address. Tickets for the show, which is slated for late April and early May can be purchased at the theatre's website.
