Whoopi Goldberg announced on The View yesterday that she will be producing a stage version of her hit film Sister Act. Previews start 06 May 2009 with an opening date of 02 June 2009 at the London Palladium. The musical is directed by Peter Schneider with a score by Alan Menken (music) and lyrics by Glen Slater. (The duo collaborated on Broadway's "Little Mermaid" last season.) The book was penned by Cherie and Bill Steinkellner, veteran television writers for such shows as "Cheers." The choreography is by Anthony Van Laast, who did the dances for Mamma Mia! on stage and on screen.
