Sister Act

Why see Sister Act?

Direct from London and based on the hilarious hit film, Sister Act features an original score by 8-time Oscar® winner Alan Menken.

When Disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder she is put in protective custody in the one place cops are sure she won't be found - a convent!

Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and an up tight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir Deloris breaths new life into the church and community, but in doing so blows her cover.

Soon the gang is giving chase only to find them up against Deloris and the power of her new found Sister Hood.

Based on the smash-hit movie, Sister Act features a brand new score by 8 time Oscar winner Alan Menken whose credits include Little Shop of Horrors, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid and most recently the hit movie Enchanted.

I LOVE these Sisters

How beautiful the music is, and how amazing the staging. The story is fun and simple and totally enjoyable. What is so unique and special about it is that all put together, and the love shared on stage opens you up to feel free and joyful and treasure the love shared by Sisters! Kimberly Marable you are a gift to the audience in each character you play - Your Delores touched my heart. ... Read more
