If you're going to see this expecting to see a stage version of the film, you'll be disappointed. However it was such an amazing show and I forgot that this was an amatuer production. I was honestly surprised at how many people seemed to be disappointed that it wasn't a remake of the jukebox musical missing how good it was in both its own right and the production.
Local mother of two Tasheka Coe, who is known to many from the 2010 series Over the Rainbow where hopefuls auditioned for Andrew Lloyd-Webber's version of The Wizard of Oz, plays nun on the run Deloris Van Cartier.
Despite Curtis, and his henchmen Joey and Pablo being the baddies they got a lot of laughs and cheers.
Nicholas Sullivan’s depiction of Monsignor O’Hara was brilliantly funny, with a performance that could be straight out of your favourite comedy.
‘Sweaty’ Eddie was very sweet and lovable and you really felt for him during "I Could Be That Guy"
The choir's transformation from tone deaf to beautiful singers was done very well, it's never easy for someone who can sing to sing badly.
Well done WBOS can't wait to see what you come up with next!
