Daisy und Violet Hilton haben alles, was sich zwei junge Frauen im Showbiz nur wunschen konnen: eine tolle Ausstrahlung, wunderbare Stimmen, attraktive Verehrer und ein Publikum, das ihnen zu Fußen liegt. Im Amerika der 30er Jahre steigen sie vom armseligen Nebenprogramm auf in die glitzernde Welt des Vaudevilles. Schließlich wird sogar Hollywood auf die Sangerinnen aufmerksam. Allerdings: Daisy und Violet sind siamesische Zwillinge, an der Hufte zusammengewachsen von Geburt an. Geht ihr Traum vom Ruhm trotzdem in Erfullung - oder gerade deswegen? Und konnen sie sich dann endlich ihre tiefsten Wunsche erfullen: Daisy mochte beruhmt sein, doch Violet wunscht sich nichts sehnlicher als so zu sein wie jeder andere.

Reviews likes hers last week usually only come once in a lifetime and there is no question whatsoever that the brightest new star on Broadway is none other than SISTER ACT's own Patina Miller. She is a superstar of the highest order singing one of the strongest scores on Broadway in years - from the gifted, gilded pen of six-time Oscar-winner Alan Menken. In this extensive, exclusive conversation we discuss her long history with the role, her recent performance in the Encores! staging of Weill's LOST IN THE STARS, as well as her work with Henry Krieger on both his recent musical ROMANTIC POETRY and being a runner-up on the DREAMGIRLS movie when the role of Effie White went to Jennifer Hudson. Additionally, we discuss HAIR, working with Sondheim on BEING ALIVE, her own favorite recent shows, her close friendship with fellow West End/Broadway criss-crosser Jonathan Groff, her soap stint on ALL MY CHILDREN, what her solo album would sound like, and much, much more!
