Young actors take to the stage of Rugby Theatre for musical comedy that's packed with humour and heart
Young actors are ready to take to the stage of Rugby Theatre for the musical comedy Sister Act.
Performed as Rugby Theatre’s Youth Project, Sister Act: The Musical follows disco diva Deloris Van Cartier, whose life takes an unexpected turn when she is placed in protective custody in a convent after witnessing a crime.
Struggling to fit into convent life, Deloris discovers her true calling as she transforms the choir into a singing sensation, bringing music, friendship and renewed confidence to the entire community.
“Sister Act is a celebration of finding your voice - sometimes in the most unexpected places,” said the Youth Project’s founder Phil Kettle.
“At its heart, it’s about courage, community and the power of music to bring people together.”
Rugby Theatre’s Youth Project is open to budding actors, singers and dancers aged between 10 and 21, who stage a high-quality show after just 10 days of rehearsals, guided by a West End team.
For those who don’t want to be on stage, there’s also the opportunity to be involved behind the scenes.
“Sister Act proves that miracles don’t always happen quietly. Sometimes they arrive with disco beats, soaring harmonies and a standing ovation," added Phil.
“Tickets are sure to sell out, so don’t miss your chance to experience this hilarious, heavenly musical!”
Sister Act: The Musical runs from July 29 - August 2, with matinee performances at the weekend.
