More about this title

About the Composer: Dan Goggin

Dan Goggin created Nunsense in 1985, launching one of Off-Broadway's longest-running hit musicals. His gift for irreverent comedy combined with genuinely singable melodies made the show a phenomenon, spawning multiple sequels, international productions, and a devoted following that persists decades later. Goggin's work demonstrated that comedy musicals could succeed without Broadway's massive budgets, proving that smart writing and heart matter more than spectacle.

Why we love this

This songbook captures the comedic warmth that made Nunsense a cultural touchstone. The songs balance accessibility with genuine theatrical personality, making them rewarding for singers who want material with both comedy and heart. Whether you're staging a full production or pulling individual numbers for cabaret or revue, these arrangements give you Broadway-quality singability without requiring a pit orchestra.

What to expect

These songs feel like sitting down with someone who makes you laugh while simultaneously touching your heart. The melodies are immediately singable and memorable; the lyrics pack observational humor that doesn't require a theater full of people to understand. It's the musical equivalent of finding a friend who gets your jokes.

Who it's for

Singers preparing audition or performance material from the Nunsense canon, especially those working in musical theater, community theater, or cabaret settings. Directors staging a full production or assembling themed concert programming around comedy musicals. Voice teachers looking for contemporary show tunes with character and personality.

How to get the most out of it

  • Keep the comic timing tight in the phrasing; these songs land hardest when the lyrics pop clearly and the rhythm stays buoyant.
  • Let the piano part breathe. Goggin's accompaniments are economical and supportive, not ornate. Respect the spaces.
  • Match the conversational tone of the lyrics with your vocal delivery. This is character-driven music that works best when the storytelling feels natural.
  • Balance the humor with genuine emotion. Many of these songs have a sentimental undercurrent beneath the jokes.

How to use it

Draw from this collection for a Nunsense anniversary concert or a comedy musical theater showcase. Individual songs work beautifully in cabaret formats or as character audition pieces. The 168-page compilation means you have material for multiple performers and multiple programming scenarios without hunting across separate sheet music purchases.

Skills your students will build

  • Comedy timing and lyrical clarity in musical theater singing
  • Sight-reading contemporary show music with conversational phrasing
  • Piano/vocal score coordination and accompaniment following
  • Character expression through song and emotional subtext in comedic material
