Sister Act
by Waco Civic Theatre

Mar. 29 (2016)


Based on the 1992 film of the same name, Sister Act tells the story of aspiring disco diva Deloris Van Cartier. Trying to work her way to the top in 1970s Philadelphia, Deloris falls in love with a very tough—and very married—gangster boyfriend named Curtis, and when Deloris witnesses him commit a murder she ends up in hiding on police orders in a convent whose parish has fallen on hard times. Though the sequin-free lifestyle doesn’t agree with her, Deloris finds her calling working with the choir, and breathes new life into the dusty convent while discovering a sisterhood she’s never had before.

Directed by Robert King, Jr. 

Here's what we're looking for: singers, dancers, actors and NUNS! 


For the role of Delores and her backup singers we' re seeking singers--young energetic singers--that move well. For the nuns, ladies that sing well, animated and have excellent comedic timing. 


Auditioners should bring 2 songs--one gospel song to be sung a capella, and one Pop/Disco song with accompaniment. (This can be sheet music or tracks).  


Actors will be asked to read a short scene.


Performers will also learn a short dance combination.
