In 'Sister Act', (February 2018,)  Sheila will play the 'set in her ways' Mother Superior who cloisters the sisters behind the convent walls and just cannot warm to the over exhuberant Derloris Van Cartier. She played the aging and lovable door lady Moms, in 'Kiss Me Kate' 2016, who was rather shaky with a bad back but knew everything that was going on and in 'The Pajama Game,' in May 2015, she was Brenda, a member of the Grievance Committee, after playing various roles in 'Barnstormers Does Broadway,' Nov. 2014 and Sonia, one of the disciples, in 'Godspell,' in May 2014. Previous to that she took on the challenging role of directing "Titanic The Musical" in 2012 and managed to fill a lifeboat with 10 people and stage a scene with 17 different locations on board the ship. Sheila really enjoys being a part of Barnstormers and has been in it since the very beginning, singing alto, loving the dancing, playing baddies, "floozies," comedy roles and the occasional serious part. She was the fundraising coordinator for many years and has even had a go at choreographing and directing.  Her previous roles also include Levi and The Baker (who died) in 'Joseph,' a picnicker and rich man (who died) in 'Godspell,' Aunt Em and Evilline the Wicked Witch of the West, (who also died) in 'The Wiz,' Lowbutt the domestic hen in 'Honk,' Mayzie La Bird in 'Seussical,' Erma the gangster's Moll in 'Anything Goes,' Golde in 'Fiddler on the Roof,' Zebra in 'Just So,' Mrs Meeres in 'Thoroughly Modern Millie,' Mrs Potts in 'Beauty and the Beast' and various other roles in smaller Autumn productions and pantomimes.
