This musical comedy is based on the hit 1992 film. When Deloris Van Cartier, disco diva, witnesses a murder, she is put into protective custody in the one place the police are sure she won’t be found: a convent. Deloris is at odds with the rigid lifestyle, but uses her talent to inspire and breathe new life into the choir and church. This moving story is filled with great music, dancing and inspiration.
