Black History Month- Movie Night- Sister Act

This movie is a  sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, sisterhood and the  music tells the hilarious story.Not only did the casting allow women of color to take up space in a role traditionally not made for them, but it is  empowering for audience members.Whoopi Goldber was not initially not cast for the role in fact, the role was originally considered for Bette Midler. This is significant as oftentimes, it seems like the opposite is always happening — white people often take roles meant for people of color. Casting, in general, is so important because it is a reflection of the people around you. Diverse casting allows for the addition of richness in a story. 

Come and join us in Hope Park at 7.00pm on Tuesday 25th of October for a Movie Night!
