My daughter and I really enjoyed Sister Act:) The humor in it made us laugh and the music was amazing:)) We really enjoyed it:))
This show was so fun! Great cast, great music, and great energy! Definitely see it if it comes to your area!
This was a great musical comedy that was fabulously adapted from the 1992 movie of the same name starring Whoopi Goldberg. The main character, Deloris Van Cartier, uses the word fabulous throughout the show and is her signature word of phrase. The story is that of a lounge singer who witnesses a crime and is sent into hiding in a convent while her gangster boyfriend tries to find her and silent her. It's very similar to the movie, but the two major differences is that the movie takes place in the 90's while the musical takes place in the 70's and her boyfriend is a mobster in the movie and a gangster in the musical. Changing the time period to the 70's was hilarious because the comedy really shined through in the costuming, choreography, and the music. The juxtaposition between the outside world and the religious convent became very apparent in a hilarious manner. The cast was primarily made up of women and they are incredibly talented singers. While not having the numbers of a large scale production, they are still able to produce the same amount of intense singing as that of other major shows. Overall, this was a great show that had comedy, drama, and is simply a feel good musical. I strongly recommend this musical to everyone.
Loved every minute! Great singing, wonderful dance numbers. Only slight criticism was the scene where Curtis is about to shoot Deloris seems unrealistically protracted. Nothing's perfect but this musical comes close! See it!
For a local show, this was so well done. The cast was excellent.
The cast and crew were amazing in this performance !!! The actors are very talented and funny. The scenery, wardrobe changes, etc... were seamless !!! The show was very entertaining !!!
I expected this to be like the movie so I talked my husband into spending nearly $500 as my birthday present to take the whole family. We have two young teenage boys. The show is way too racy and full of cussing for us. Yelling "Jesus Christ!" as an oath is seriously low class and offensive. The addition of the two gays buying the church was an offense. The opening number was little more than an excuse to act like strippers. The cast members have great talent, but someone "interpreting" this story for stage has poor judgment. They did not have to "smut up" the show. It could have been great. Too bad. I doubt we will ever trust Kavli theater with our hard-earned entertainment dollars again.
I took my mom for her birthday. She absolutely loved it. The staff, food and the show was outstanding. We're already planning to come and see Dreamgirls.
It was funny and consistent. I loved the way everyone danced together. No one tripped, fell or bumped into each other. They did so good!!
We enjoyed the beginning of the show and would recommend it.
The cast did an awesome job performing and waiting tables. However, for the cost I did not enjoy the food.
There was so much energy in this performance and everyone did an outstanding job! It was heartwarming and hilarious all at the same time! It was cast so well. I would make another 8 hour drive to go see this anytime!
My hesitation to recommend this show has nothing to do with talent which was off the charts great. The script has been rewritten, and while very funny in parts, much of the dialogue and lyrics to songs is crude and sexually oriented. I felt most was inappropriate as did others with whom I've spoken. The stage production does not include the music in the movie and though the general plot is the same, it's not what we expected.
I thoroughly enjoyed Sister Act. Great music, excellent singers and great story line. I went with three friends and we all thought it was great! I definitely would give it 5 stars.
They didn't sing any of the songs that was in the movie the second half of the show was dull and boring mostly just song after song. Not as good as the movie at all
Loved the music and loved the actors.......esp Delores.
Wonderful show, very entertaining! The cast was awesome and kept my interest through the entire show! Well done!
Had Whoopee's influence in every song and joke. Beautiful costumes. Everything about the musical makes you feel good.
Awesome, surprised wife for Christmas with tickets to Sister Act.
Cast was great! Had a fabulous time watching them!
