Sister Act is the feel-amazing musical comedy smash based on the hit 1992 film that has audiences jumping to their feet!
When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in one place the cops are sure she won’t be a found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, soon, the gang is giving chase only to find them up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood.
Sister Act is reason to REJOICE!!
