a crime and the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look- a convent!
Under the suspicious watch of the 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.
Produced by the Amici (Phantom of the Opera, Evita), this production will feature NZ Idol finalist Keshia Tunks in the lead role as Deloris. Driven, multi-talented and an
ever-inspiring singer and songwriter, Keshia’s effervescent energy and charisma light up the stage.
Filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing and a truly moving story, SISTER ACT, THE MUSICAL will leave audiences breathless. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, SISTER ACT, THE MUSICAL is reason to REJOICE!
