The Novice

Sister Leo is the youngest sister (and the youngest in our cast of "dusties") in the convent and has aspirations to be a dancer--which makes us all chuckle when he says those lines. But in Nunsense, A-men!, he recognizes that his goals can be achieved through humility and work in the order of the Little Sisters of Uptown.

Mikey Apuada plays the role, having just entered into the musical theater world last year. I met him through Karaoke at Bobby Love's and worked with him in Miss Saigon over at Wilmette's community theater. He played the role of Thuy in Oak Lawn's Saigon. He's so funny. We just went out last night to Bobby's in our nun outfits to promote the show. Giggle.
