Synopsis
Sister Act is a feel-good musical comedy like “nun” other! The play follows the story of Deloris Van Cartier, a disco diva who, after witnessing a murder committed by her boyfriend, is put into protective custody in the one place where her ex is least likely to find her—a convent. Being disguised as a nun can’t cramp her style. Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but, in doing so, blows her cover. Soon, the gang is giving chase, only to find themselves up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood. The play features original music by Tony and Oscar winner Alan Menken (Newsies, Aladdin, Little Mermaid)!

Courtesy Warning: Recommended for young teens and up. There are gunshots, theatrical gun violence, and adult situations and language.

SISTER ACT is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI (www.mtishows.com).
