WATERBURY — A parade of stars marches by as the famous Edwards Twins perform their unique magic by transformi­ng themselves into everybody from Rod Stewart to Barbra Streisand, Cher to Celine Dion.

Next up are the zany and wild guys, known as Coconuts, bringing their special blend of comedy and music to the stage. For more than four decades, they have been spreading joy along the Eastern Seacoast, from Cape Cod to the Florida Keys, and now they are in the neighborho­od for your entertainm­ent pleasure. Called the “Ultimate Baby Boomer Party Band,” these guys promise to celebrate Rock ’n’ Roll with a hefty frosting of fun. Tickets are $20.

The music continues on Sept. 25 at 8 p.m. when the Connecticu­t Transit Authority sails in for a spectacula­r pit stop, recreating the sounds and songs of Chicago, one of the greatest American bands ever.

Our favorite nuns are back again from Friday, October 1 to Sunday, October 10 but with a twist. The Little Sisters of Hoboken have returned with a vengeance, guaranteed to provide

a hilarious and heavenly time, with our own Semina DeLaurenti­s as Sister Amnesia leading the charge. Until September 15, use code NUN to save $5, otherwise tickets are $30. Come help officially reopen Seven Angels Theatre with “Nonsense with a Twist!"
