I am a sucker for that," says Ballard She once met Mother Teresa in a church in the Bronx Since its off-Broadway debut in 1985 "Nunsense," created by Dan Goggin, has had over 5,000 productions worldwide, grossing more than $300 million "He thought we were related " â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: www Consider a few "Nunsense" statistics "When I was doing tours in musicals like `Top Banana' in the early '50s, you would stay for four months in cities like Chicago "Show business is so different today," says Ballard as she passes around the rabe with a motherly admonishment: "Eat some of this, it's good for you " And she's got a famous role model 9 in Houston before moving on to Columbus, Ohio, Indianapolis, Louisville, Ky Meriwether and Ballard make their homes in California and Hines in Nevada " That's not exactly the case with Ballard I don't feel any age "One of the keys to being able to work in `Nunsense' is having performed as yourself on stage or having done club acts," Goggin says in a telephone interview Fred Muggs to Mother Teresa to Hugh Jackman to the tribulations of touring "I felt blessed that day," she says Fittingly, she portrays the Mother Superior in "Nunsense "It was rough starting rehearsals ' We try to have the actors use some of their own personality " "Insanity," snorts Hines in agreement It's astonishing the others haven't been " Twenty cities in 21 weeks, a tour that started Dec " Still, the cold hasn't kept her from seeing every new musical in town â€â€? from "Wonderful Town" to "Never Gonna Dance" to "Taboo" to "Wicked" to "The Boy From Oz" and its Australian star " Yet all the women are eager to get started on the tour and perform But I've never been bored "He has it over everyone "I hope not," Meriwether adds with a laugh "I've never typecast `Nunsense " Yet all seem daunted by the size of the venues they are playing "Besides, I am blessed to have a career and family and friends When I am home, I am home with my friends , and beyond "Although I feel young now Meriwether asked to audition Mention "The Golden Apple," and, without coaxing, she launches into some of John Latouche's literate lyrics from the show "She's still glamorous," he says of the former Miss America and alum of both "Barnaby Jones" and "The Today Show," where she worked with that well-known chimpanzee, J com< /p> " Today, even a week's engagement is a luxury, compared to that most dreaded of touring assignments â€â€? one-night stands Every time it's recast, the show changes "I used to get a Christmas card every year from J "I did 128 one-nighters with `Hello, Dolly!' The set would come down and go into the truck while we were doing the show She came in without makeup so she would look like a nun, according to Goggin It's like `A Chorus Line' with ladies of a certain age," Meriwether cracks "I adore New York, but the weather," Ballard says, her voice trailing off with a sigh about the cold and the damp " Only Love and Engel live permanently in New York Fred Muggs " "That tour almost killed the crew "The best thing about being on the road is that you live in the present â€â€? more than any other time in your life," Engel says Besides, I find that I'm happiest when I'm working "I never had vocal training," Love explains " "Nunsense" is big on performer-audience interaction, or, as they say in theater lingo: breaking the fourth wall and bringing theatergoers into the show It keeps you very alive On the road, room service is my biggest friend He has to win the Tony " For Love, a legendary pop singer and star on Broadway in "The Leader of the Pack," it wasn't that difficult to begin rehearsals Only Ballard and Engel are veterans of other "Nunsense" productions The deceased were done in by a tainted vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia, Child of God I have scarves as old as you Fred Muggs," Ballard recalls And then we would pile on the bus to sleep until we got to the next hotel In most of the things I've done recently, I was the star Those were long runs "People like Mimi Hines are perfect candidates," Goggin says Five Veterans Tour With 'Nunsense' Dec 17, 1:38 PM EST The lunchtime conversation zigs and zags â€â€? and the topics range from J Five show-biz veterans â€â€?
