Whoopi Goldberg, who starred in the two ’Sister Act’ movies, is making a grand return to reprise her role as Deloris Van Cartier in ”Sister Act: The Musical,” when it returns next year in London.
Jennifer Saunders has also been announced to star as the convent’s Mother Superior in the newly-adopted version of the hit musical. She says that she thinks the show, “Could be the event of the century.”
Whoopi, who was previously announced as a producer of the staging, is set to perform in 39 shows at the Eventim Apollo in London from July 29, 2020-August 30, 2020.
The actress and comedian also shared on ‘The View’ Thursday that she’s been trying to get a Sister Act 3 up and running, but it’s been met with a lot of resistance as people have said that, ‘No one wants to see it. It’s dated. It’s older.’”
‘Broadway’ reports that the musical will feature an original score by Alan Menken (music) and Glenn Slater (lyrics).
