Who's Who

Tay Sherill

as Deloris Van Cartier

Tay Sherril (Delores/ Sister Mary Clarence) has been seen on the HLT stage in such shows as Grease, The Marvelous Wonderettes, and Disenchanted on the Pavilion stage. I am excited for the opportunity to be a part of the Sister Act cast and very thankful for the continued love and support from my family and friends. To anyone who has ever doubted their abilities, never give up, work hard, strive to be the best YOU that you can be, and you’ll be Fabulous, Baby!
MJ Disco

as Mother Superior

Mary Jane Disco (Mother Superior) is pleased to add another Mother Superior to her resume. She's had a run of these roles including Sound of Music, Nunsense, Nuncrackers and Agnes of God. Mary Jane is grateful to have found Highlands Lakeside Theater. Although she has directed and produced for the Valley Light Opera, and written children's plays over the past 50 years, her greatest love is acting. She's had a long run of characters, with such greats as Mame, Miss Hannigan, Mama Peterson, Mrs. Sowerberry, Mrs. Higgins and all the Gilbert and Sullivan contraltos, to name a few. Mary Jane taught elementary school music for 28 years. Her greatest delight is watching her grandchildren follow in her footsteps. Her family is delighted that she is back onstage and have traveled from Massachusetts, California and New Hampshire to cheer her on. Her husband, Frank, is her greatest supporter. He is working behind the scenes and is happy to see her on stage once again.
Mattie Bond

as Sister Mary Robert

Mattie Bond (Sister Mary Robert) is seventeen and attends Sebring High School. She has been a part of, and loved, HLT since she was little. Sister Act will be her 20th show. She has great love and appreciation for her cast and crew for helping her grow throughout this process. Mattie is grateful for every opportunity thrown her way. She dedicates her performance to her grandma.
Bob Hippchen

as Monsignor O’Hara

Bob Hippchen (Monsignor O’Hara) has been a member of HLT since 2006, and he has been involved in many main stage productions, a few of them on stage and more behind the scenes. He has won several awards, including a Zenon for Best Set Design for Diary of Ann Frank. Bob is happy to be appearing on stage with his wife, Brenda, in Sister Act. It isn’t often they get to do that.
