SISTER ACT INFORMATION.

NEWTON SISTER ACT REVISED SCHEDULE
Here is the casting information for this show-
SISTER ACT – NADMCS – CASTING
The production team were delighted with the auditions for “Sister Act”. It was clear that everyone had put a lot of work into their auditions and the standard was very high indeed. Inevitably, there are some members who did really good auditions and have not been cast in their preferred roles but that is because we had so many good people to choose from. I must emphasis once again that attendance at music rehearsals is essential, particularly for the nuns and female principals who have the bulk of the vocal work. More news on that anon.
