Who knew that a musical crime comedy, lead by a group of nuns, would become one of the most financially successful comedies of the 90s? It’s still as funny and heartwarming today as it was then and the music has stood the test of time. Before the movie, women’s chorus ‘Adelaide Sound Connection’ will delight us with an acapella set in four part-harmony.

SYNOPSIS
When lively lounge singer Deloris Van Cartier (Whoopi Goldberg) sees her mobster beau, Vince LaRocca (Harvey Keitel), commit murder, she is relocated for her protection. Set up in the guise of a nun in a California convent, Deloris proceeds to upend the quiet lives of the resident sisters. In an effort to keep her out of trouble, they assign Deloris to the convent’s choir, an ensemble that she soon turns into a vibrant and soulful act that gains widespread attention.
