The musical comedy “Sister Act” opens this weekend at Theatre 29 with a gala opening Friday night plus a Saturday evening show and a Sunday matinee. Rebecca Havely has your invitation…
“Sister Act” is a musical based on the hit 1992 film of the same name. Delores Van Cartier is a lounge singer, played by award-winning actress Robin Wilson. After witnessing a crime, she is placed in the witness protection program as a nun. She ends up leading the church choir of sisters that includes Virginia Sulick, Brittany Baldridge, Emma Sanchez, Cindy Daigneault, Colleen Badel, Patti Brown, Char Childs, Sabrina Giron, Kegan Longuevan, Sara Mahan, Sarabeth Matilsky, and Imelda Patu. The choir draws media attention to the monastery, attracting the goons chasing Delores played by Tom Patu, Ethan Woolever, Michael Sanchez, and Noah Wahlberg. Rounding out the cast are Cruz Jimenez and Spencer Rodgers. The production is directed by Scott Clinkscales and is fun for the entire family.
“Sister Act” will run weekends at Theatre 29 from February 6, through March 1. Shows are Friday and Saturday nights at 7, Sunday matinees are at 2:30. Tickets are $10 to $15 and are available at theatre29.org or by calling the Theatre 29 Box Office at 760-361-4151.
