Sister Act

Mainstage
Music by Alan Menken | Lyrics by Glenn Slater | Book by Cheri Steinkellner & Bill Steinkellner | Directed by Marisa D. Hébert

May 1 – 25, 2025

Sister Act is the feel-good musical comedy based on the 1992 smash hit film that has audiences jumping to their feet! When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in the one place the cops are sure she won’t be found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight 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 themselves up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood.

Featuring original music by Tony- and eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of Horrors), this uplifting musical was nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
