Eddie decides that Deloris needs to go into the witness protection program and sends her to the place he believes Shank will never find her - a convent called The Holy Order of the Little Sisters of Our Mother of Perpetual Faith.ĭeloris is disappointed by this idea as she learns from the Mother Superior that contact with the outside world is limited, and that she cannot smoke, drink, or wear any of her less than appropriate clothing ("Here Within These Walls"). The two recognize each other as old friends from school with Deloris calling him "Sweaty Eddie". Deloris runs to a police station and tells the desk chief, Eddie, about what happened. Horrified, Deloris runs away and Shank orders his men to get her and bring her back. However she gets to Shank just in time to see him and his crew made up of nephew TJ, Bones, and Dinero, shoot someone who they believe has "squealed" about them to the cops. She decides to break up with Shank and head out of Philadelphia to go fulfill her dreams on her own. Hurt and frustrated, Deloris goes to her backup singers KT and LaRosa, about her dreams of stardom and fame ("Fabulous, Baby!"). Deloris is overjoyed as she believes her boyfriend is going to introduce her to a record producer on that day (her birthday), although she soon learns that this is not to be.
Philadelphia, Mother Superior declares that the convent is in need ( Prologue) before Deloris Van Cartier, crowned 'Lady Fabulous' of 1978, is seen performing in the night club run by her gangster boyfriend Curtis Shank ("Take Me to Heaven"). 2.1 Original productions in Pasadena and Atlanta.
