Sister Act The Musical

 Just saw Sister Act The Musical, and it was heavenly funny!  You just can't go wrong with singing and dancing nuns.  

I loved Sister Act when it came to movie theaters in 1992.  Whoopi Goldberg really owned that role.  The actress actually produced this for Broadway, and it definitely carries her unique stamp.





They did change the setting and time for this musical adaptation.  The scene is now Philadelphia, 1978, which allows for a range of disco, funk, soul, and rap music to make sense within the context of the time period.

The music is entirely new, and it really energizes you.   It's wonderful.



 Anyone who enjoyed the movie should watch this.  It really has the same spirit.  Also, that ending has more sparkles and sequins than you can shake a disco ball at.  Truly fun!
