Based on the hit 1992 of the same name, the musical version of SISTER ACT just might be more entertaining in a lot of ways. Since the star of the film, the multi-talented Whoopi Goldberg, is producing it as well, that might explain why it has a certain darkness around the edges. In any event, the current production playing the Fox Theatre (though December 1, 2013) is an inspirational delight.

With its consistent sense of humor, dazzling costumes, and powerhouse voices, this touring company of SISTER ACT delivers a delightfully sassy night of musical theatre.

After a rocky start this musical rose to heavenly heights!
