Bolingbrook High School to Stage 'Sister Act'

Bolingbrook High School will present the delightful musical “Sister Act” on stage in the Claar Family Auditorium March 10-12 and 17-18.

Deloris Van Cartier (Gabby Doyle) is an aspiring singer in Philadelphia, where she is auditioning to perform at her gangster boyfriend’s nightclub. Deloris believes that Curtis (Spencer Avery) is going to introduce her to a big producer, but is upset when he tells her she is not ready. Hurt and rejected, Deloris decides to break up with him, but when she goes to find him she accidentally sees him kill one of his cronies and runs to the police, who place her in hiding at a convent under the wing of Mother Superior (Brynn Ann Franytz) until Curtis is brought to trial. What happens from there is amazing as Deloris finds a bigger purpose in her life.
