Synopsis: Sister Robert Anne has a dream...... after a tough life growing up in Brooklyn, New York, where stealing cars and holding up bars has not offered her the life she dreamed, Sister Robert Anne 'saw the light' and decided joining the Mount St Helen's Convent may just be 'the answer to her prayers'. Growing up in the back room of a jazz club, Sister Robert Anne could belt a tune from a young age and after joining the convent, realised that she had a talent that could not only inspire others, but make a little side hustle to help her fellow sisters of God. Her plan...... to raise money for the convent by hosting a cabaret class to teach people the craft of being a cabaret performer!! Not to mention a chance to finally be the star of the show without Reverend Mother knowing!

So take out your rosary beads, fill your glass with 'Alter' wine, and prepare for the lesson of a lifetime as Sister Robert Anne takes you through all the rights and wrongs of performing in your very own cabaret show!! Bless you all.
