“Sister Act” (musical) Cost = $115

Wells Fargo Pavilion, Sacramento

When disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier, witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in the one place the cops are sure she won't be a found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. Based on the hit 1992 film, this uplifting musical comedy is a sparkling tribute to the universal power of sisterhood, with a score by Tony and Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty and the Beast, Little Shop of Horrors). Filled with powerful gos-pel music, outrageous dancing and a truly mov-ing story, Sister Act will leave audiences breath-less! Lunch, at your own expense, will be at OBO' Italian Table & Bar. The performance starts at 2:00pm. Price includes deluxe motor coach transportation.
