"Sister Act" is the musical comedy smash that has audiences jumping to their feet!

When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier (Alexandra St. James-Gray) 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 (Jennifer Phelps). Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but in doing so, blows her cover. Soon, the gang members give chase only to find themselves up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood.

Filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing and a truly moving story, "Sister Act" will leave Playhouse audiences breathless. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, "Sister Act" is reason to rejoice!
