Sister act
REJOICE! THE HIGH-SPIRITED MUSICAL COMEDY
SISTER ACT” IS AT  BROADWAY PALM!

            FORT MYERS, Fla – February 18, 2016 – The feel-good musical comedy Sister Act is at Broadway Palm! Playing now through April 2, 2016, Sister Act features original music by Tony and 8-time Oscar winner Alan Menken and is based on the hit film of the same title that starred Whoopi Goldberg.   
            Sister Act tells the story of Deloris, a disco diva, witnesses a crime and the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look…a convent! Masquerading as a nun, and under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own. She makes new friends and breathes new life into the church, but in the process, blows her cover! This high-spirited musical comedy is a shining tribute to the universal power of friendship.
            Directing and choreographing Sister Act is Amy Marie McCleary. McCleary’s credits include the 2015 national tour of Memphis the Musical along with the recent Broadway Palm hits CATS, Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story and Footloose among many others! She received her BFA from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and now makes her home in Southwest Florida where along with directing and choreographing, she works with many young performers as a vocal coach.

My Review: There were, count em.. FIVE standing ovation moments in this production.. the exuberance was high, the excitement constant and the voices, choreography and humor: Rampant..
Trust me, if you don't see SISTER ACT.. you are backing up and not living as fully as you sure could seeing this. Every time I think that Amy CAN"T top the last production she choreographed, heck if she doesn't whip more out of her wonderful bag o tricks! Go Amy!!!




The hits NEVER seem to stop.. please go see this one before it's totally sold out!
