FSCJ Artist Series And The Nathan H. Wilson Center For The Arts Present The 17th Annual High School Summer Musical Theatre Experience, SISTER ACT

FSCJ Artist Series High School Summer Musical Theatre Experience is celebrating its 17th year providing theatre opportunities to 7th-12th graders in the First Coast area. This summer, from July 21 through July 30, more than 50 student performers and technicians will train with professional theatre artists in preparation for a production of Sister Act.  

Sister Act is based on the Touchstone Pictures motion picture "Sister Act" written by Joseph Howard. Music by Alan Menken; lyrics by Glenn Slater; and book by Cheri Steinkellner & Bill Steinkellner with additional book, material by Douglas Carter Beane.  

Sister Act is the feel-good musical comedy smash based on the hit 1992 film that has audiences jumping to their feet! Featuring original music by Tony- and eight-time Oscar winner, Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of Horrors), this uplifting musical was nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

When disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier, witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in  the 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, 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  them 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 audiences breathless. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, Sister Act is reason to REJOICE! This show is appropriate for all audiences and groups.
