Under the suspicious watch of the Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly finds her own. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, ‘Sister Act’ is a reason to rejoice! This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International (Europe).
