BWW Review: SISTER ACT at Omaha Community Playhouse


SISTER ACT is a simple story about nuns in wimples who are taught to let loose in song by a nightclub singer who is cloistered at the convent in hiding from the hoods.

But even a piece as good as this would not be as funny as it's meant to be without the right cast and crew to pull it off. This bunch does.
