From the Convent to the Spotlight
Our Sister Act Jr. casts delivered two spectacular shows this week at The Beacon, and now they’re excited to set off to perform the show at Edinburgh Festival Fringe!
Over the past year, 25 dedicated Beacon boys, a phenomenal parent support team and our amazing Performing Arts department have worked tirelessly to bring this high energy musical to life. The hard work and pure talent was showcased perfectly this week, as our Beacon Community witnessed dramatic costume changes, extravagant dance routines and overall brilliant acting.
The story follows Deloris Van Cartier, a singer who witnesses a crime committed by her boyfriend and is placed in protective custody of a convent. Despite originally not fitting in with the strict religious community, she’s put in charge of their struggling choir, where she transforms them into a great success. With a lot more twists, turns and laughs, it was a truly entertaining watch for all!
We can’t wait to see our casts flourish in the creative atmosphere of the Edinburgh Festival. Good luck, boys!
