The 1992 movie Sister Act starring Whoopi Goldberg is still a favorite among film fans, but there is also a musical version of the story for a new generation of people to check out.

Guests at Durham hotels will be able to see it between May 14th and 19th, when the production will visit the city's Performing Arts Center for a short stint.

Like the movie upon which it was based, Sister Act the Musical tells the story of Deloris Van Cartier, who dreams of being a famous singer.

However, she is forced into witness protection when she sees her boyfriend murder someone - and she joins a convent under duress.

When she is made to sing in the choir, her voice is a revelation and results in the church receiving much more money in donations - but her higher profile could be putting her and her sisters in danger.

Residents of the Millennium Hotel Durham who decide to see what all the rave reviews are about could be best taking a taxi to the venue and back, as this will only take around nine minutes.
