Deutsches Theater München and Manfred Hertlein Veranstaltungs GmbH present a production by ShowSlot in collaboration with Jamie Wilson Productions
Hallelujah, the nuns are on the loose!
Sister Act – The Heavenly Musical tells the story of the eccentric disco diva Deloris, who goes into hiding in a convent and stirs up the dusty church choir. The hit musical based on the cult comedy starring Whoopi Goldberg is full of divine humor and likeable characters. In the fall, the original production from London’s West End will go on tour in German and also make a stop in Munich.
From nightclub to convent
Nightclub singer Deloris van Cartier witnesses a murder after one of her performances and suddenly finds herself in the witness protection program. Instead of glamorous stage lights, a conservative convent now awaits her, where she goes into hiding disguised as a nun – much to the chagrin of the strict mother superior.
In the church choir, the singer is supposed to become part of the congregation. But the nuns can’t hit a note and so Deloris takes over the leadership. With her, every church service becomes an event and the masses attract more and more people. When the sisters finally perform in front of the Pope, the gangsters are on Deloris’ trail and the nuns find themselves in great danger…
Singing up to heaven
Eight-time Oscar winner Alan Menken (including Disney’s Aladdin and Disney’s Beauty and the Beast) sweeps the dust off the hymn books with rousing show numbers and sweeps the audience out of their seats.
Kevin Schroeder and Heiko Wohlgemuth translate Glenn Slater’s song lyrics into German. Mary Robert, Mary Lazarus and Deloris dance on stage to hits such as “Zeig mir den Himmel”, “Singt hinauf zum Himmel”, “Die Welt, die ich nie sah” and “Lass die Liebe rein” and the audience sways along. A heavenly pleasure!
