Sister Act: The Musical
Nun has fun on the run from guns
Theatre Baton Rouge 7155 Florida Boulevard, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70806
Between Nunsense, Sally Field vehicle The Flying Nun, and 2,000 years of the Catholic Church, one thing is certain: people can't get enough nuns. Your prayers for more nun-derful entertainment are answered this month, as Theatre Baton Rouge presents the regional premiere of Sister Act, the stage musical based on the fondly remembered Whoopi Goldberg movie. Sassy chanteuse Deloris witnesses a mob hit, and is placed by a zanier-than-usual FBI in a convent for her own protection and for the comic potential of bothered nuns. Hijinks and up-tempo rearrangements of hymns ensue. $30, student tickets available $19. Thursday-Saturday at 7:30 pm; Sunday afternoons at 2 pm; one Saturday matinee at 2 pm on November 11. (225) 924-6496 or theatrebr.org.
