SISTER ACT - THE MUSICAL - For the first time in South Africa
Joburg Theatre is proud to announce that CANDIDA MOSOMA
leads a stellar cast as Deloris Van Cartier in the South African première
production of the feel-amazing musical comedy SISTER ACT.
The theatre has secured the ‘non-replica’ rights to the show
for Joburg, which means that it won’t be a carbon copy from London or
Broadway. SISTER ACT in Joburg will be a
creative collaboration and celebration of South African talent.
SISTER ACT is based on the top-grossing 1992 movie comedy
starring Whoopi Goldberg. The musical is
written by Cheri and Bill Steinkellner, with additional book material by
Douglas Carter Beane, lyrics by Glenn Slater and music by Oscar and Tony
winning composer Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of
Horrors).
When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she
is put in protective custody in 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 them up against Deloris and
the power of her newly found sisterhood.
Filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing and a
truly moving story, SISTER ACT leaves audiences breathless. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of
friendship, SISTER ACT is reason to rejoice!
Multi-award-winning South African director and writer Janice
Honeyman is on board to direct SISTER ACT.
The show will run from Tuesdays to Fridays at 8pm, Saturday
at 3pm and 8pm and Sunday at 2pm.
Tickets range from R200 - R350 and can be booked online at
