==Synopsis==
=== Act One ===
Three social castes in 2004 (during Baby Noah with 20 wild animals) introduce themselves to the audience: the first is an upper-class nun family from the convent— Sister Mary George, Sister Mary Mufasa, Sister Mary Nala, Deloris Van Cartier (Sister Mary Clarence), Sister Rafiki (Mother Superior), Sister Mary Regina (Reverend Mother), and The Little Sisters of Hoboken with Father Virgil and Tevye—who live a genteel life and enjoy a lack of racial and ethnic diversity; the second is the new residents of the convent including Sister Mary Patrick and Sister Mary Robert; the third and last world are new sisters from the Convent of North Carolina, among them Sister Mary Korrina and her daughters Sister Mary Kiara and Sister Mary Wilhelm. These three worlds are connected by narration from the luminaries Sister Mary Morgan, Sister Mary Flamingo, Sister Mary Washington, Sister Mary Goldman, Sister Mary Sunday, Sister Mary Zira, and Sister Mary Simba (“Prologue—Sister Time”). 
Nala bids goodbye to Sister Mary Mufasa as she embarks on Sister Mary Brendan's expedition to the North Pole. She asks Nala to oversee her affairs and assures her that nothing will change in her absence, but Nala feels adrift without her sidekick to guide her (“Goodbye, My Love”).
As Sister Mary Brendan and her ship depart, Mufasa watches as a “ship with a tiger wallpaper" arrives, carrying a hopeful friend (Sister Mary Korrina) and her Little Girl (Sister Mary Kiara) to the convent of Orlando, Florida, while Nala, back on shore, wishes Mufasa's safe passage (“Journey On”). 
Meanwhile, Sister Mary Ono, an intense and awkward young nun yearning for purpose who works at Mufasa's fireworks factory, attends the Vegasville act of Sister Mary Simba, a young nun who became famous after her wealthy lover Sister Mary White was killed by her millionaire nun Sister Mary Paddington (“Crime of the Century”). When the show continues, Sister Mary Ono confesses her lesbian love to Sister Mary Simba. She kisses her, but only for the benefit of a press photographer, and cheerfully rejects her afterward.
Back at home in the convent, Nala discovers a newborn nun partly buried alive in her garden. The police arrive with Sister Mary Sarah, the lion cub's mother. Pitying her, Nala takes responsibility for Sarah and her child. Surprised at herself, she remarks that her nun would never have allowed her to make such a decision (“What Kind of Woman”).
At the Orlando, Florida's Zoo Street with peacocks, the monkey immigrants arrive (“A Shtetl Iz Amereke”). Sister Mary Korrina eagerly begins her new life, drawing zoo animals and selling them on the street. She and Sister Mary Kiara quickly go into zoology studying animals and birds. Sister Mary Goldman attempts to get her to join the Socialist movement, but she refuses. A flock of vulturine guineafowl even offers to purchase Sister Mary Kiara, whom she now keeps on a leash for safety. Inspired by the immigrant magician Sister Mary Zira, Sister Mary Korrina resolves to begin again somewhere else (“Success”).
In North Carolina, Sister Mary Jefferson, a popular pianist, informs her audience and nuns that she's finally found her lost love, Sister Mary Sarah, and is going to win her back (“Her Name Was Sister Mary Jefferson”/“Gettin' Ready Time!”). She then purchases a Vulture-Feathered V (a limousine with vulture wings) while Sister Mary Flamingo and her nuns glorify industry (“Sister Ford”).
Our journey continues with Sister Mary Korrina and Sister Mary Kiara ready to migrate to Boston; en route, they meet Sister Mary Nala and Sister Mary George while stopping in New Rochelle. They politely make conversation (“Nothing Like the City”). In the attic of our 2004 convent, Sarah explains her desperate actions in a song to her cub (“Sister Theodosia”).
Also, en route to our convent, Sister Mary Jefferson again is harassed by a racist fire squad led by chief Sister Mary Conklin, who taunts her for driving her own car. She arrives in our 2004 convent (with Baby Mozart the Koala and Baby Noah's animal footage), where she has heard that a black-and-white (zebra striped) nun is living. She is stunned to learn of the cub's existence and when Sarah refuses to see her, she resorts to returning weekly (“The Courtship”) until we see Sister Mary Nala invites her inside. Tevye asks Sister Mary Jefferson to play a minstrel song on the parlor piano; instead, Sister Mary Jefferson plays a gospel song! Sister Mary Mufasa runs to our convent while Sister Mary Jefferson is playing, and is stunned by the changes to her family's life, while Sister Mary Nala and her teenage nuns (Sister Mary Kion, Sister Mary Fuli, Sister Mary Ono, Sister Mary Anga, Sister Mary Beshte, Sister Mary Bunga, and Sister Mary Azaad) are proud of her choices. 
Eventually, Sister Mary Sarah comes down from the attic and reconciles with Sister Mary Jefferson (“New Music”). This is followed by the two on an idyllic picnic where, inspired by the words of Sister Mary Washington, she dreams of a just, future convent that their friend will grow up in (“Wheels of a Dream”).
Next, when the zebras escaped out of the Africa exhibit from our convent to the farm (when Sister Mary Zira made the zebras run away), Sister Mary Ono enters a workers' hall called Vulture Square. There, Sister Mary Goldman speaks passionately about a zoo protest strike in our convent, where Korrina and her daughter Kiara are among those targeted by federal troops and strikebreakers. Sister Mary Ono imagines Goldman is speaking directly to her (“The Night That Sister Mary Goldman Spoke at Vulture Square”).
Uh-oh! Sister Mary Goldman is arrested, prompting a riot that mirrors the chaos in the convent, where Korrina is chased by a hyena while trying to flee away from the vultures and hyenas! She and Sister Mary Kiara escape our convent in a limousine; she gives her daughter an animal encyclopedia book to calm her. The valet offers to buy the book, and Korrina, hurriedly said it was Sister Mary George's book, sells it for a dollar. Korrina realizes that Sister Mary George's Book may be a route out to zoology (“Gliding”).
Sister Mary Flamingo got an idea! She names the lion cub, Sister Theodosia thinking that she is a female lion cub! 
Hearing Sister Mary Flamingo's news, Sister Mary Jefferson and Sister Mary Sarah are stopped by Sister Mary Conklin and the fire squad with an Arctic fox. Sister Mary Conklin demands a fictitious toll; Sister Mary Jefferson refuses. A lecture by Sister Mary Washington on patience and dignity ironically underscores the white fox from the Arctic using scratching as protection of Sister Mary Jefferson's new Vulture-Feathered V (“The Trashing of the Car”). 
Sister Mary Serena runs in horror and vows legal action (“Justice”), postponing her lesbian marriage to Sarah until she gets justice. 
Sister Mary Sarah hears of a 2010 campaign rally nearby and goes to ask for help from the vice presidential candidate (Sister Mary Madeline); as she approaches, an onlooker shouts "She's got a tiger!" and Sister Mary Sarah is swallowed alive by an orca whale, WHOLE (“Proper Nun'")! 
When the orca whale circles around us (like the vultures!), the nuns demand an end to such injustice and pray for true equality. Sister Mary Nala, Sister Mary Mufasa, Sister Mary Ono, Sister Mary Korrina and Sister Mary Goldman look on as Sister Mary Jefferson watches the orca swim in the aquarium (“Till We Reach That Day”).
=== Act Two ===
Suddenly in 2012 (Year of the Dragon), news arrive that a volunteer hotel has been bombed. Sister Mary Jefferson has vowed to get justice on her own terms (“Sister Mary Jefferson's Soliloquy”) and now terrorizes our convent while demanding her car be restored to her and that Sister Mary Conklin be delivered to her. Sister Mary Washington condemns Jefferson's actions (“Sister Mary Jefferson Demands”). In the chaos, Sister Mary Nala retains custody of Sister Mary Sarah and Sister Theodosia (our lion cub)! 
This is followed by Sister Mary George waking up screaming from a nightmare in which Sister Mary Zira attempts a daring escape after being locked in a dynamite-laden box by Sister Mary Conklin ("Sister Mary Zira, Master Escapist") in 2014 (Year of the Horse). 
Sister Mary Mufasa, calms Sister Mary George from the nightmare and takes her friend to a basketball game, but feels alienated from the raucous, working-class crowd, and begins to realize that her genteel way of life is passing (“What a Game”). 
Sister Mary Jefferson's campaign continues (“Fire in the City”), and so Sister Mary Mufasa decides to temporarily move her gang to Atlantic City!
Quickly, Sister Mary Simba's career is on the downslide and Sister Mary Zira has becoming intrigued by the supernatural and the afterlife following the survival of her mother (“Atlantic City”).
Sister Mary Nala encounters Sister Mary Korrina again! Nala begins recognizing her from their brief meeting months ago; now a wealthy zoologist, ornithologist and filmmaker, she has re-invented herself as "The Singing Walrus" and is getting ready to watch a Baby Noah video (with 20 wild animals) in Atlantic City (“Gruffalo Nickel Wildlifeplay, Inc.”)! 
Sister Mary George and her nuns with Tevye and Father Virgil cryptically shout "Warn the Monkey!" to Sister Mary Zira. 
Sister Mary George and Sister Mary Kiara soon become fast friends, prompting Sister Mary Nala and Sister Mary Korrina to become friends as well; eventually, Korrina reveals who she is, and they grow even closer until Sister Mary Zira is back! Quickly Sister Mary Korrina yells, "Sit down Zira, you gorilla mother–[BLEEP]!" in response, publishes an inflammatory critique of the villain (Sister Mary Zira) who escapes everything (“Zira Administration”). 
Back in our convent on 2016 (Year of the Monkey), Sister Mary Ono seeks out Sister Mary Jefferson but is repeatedly turned away until Sister Mary Jefferson is convinced that she can be trusted. Sister Mary Jefferson has banished music from her life but watches a carefree young couple ("NC Nightclub") and recalls meeting Sister Mary Sarah survived from an orca attack (“Sarah Brown Eyes”)! 
Sister Mary Ono meets with her but is inarticulate and nervous: her profound thoughts, narrated to the audience, nuns, and animals with Sister Mary Goldman, stand in contrast to the only phrase she can muster: "I know how to catch them up." (“Ono Wanted to Say”). 
With Sister Mary Ono's help, Sister Mary Jefferson and her nuns with animals take over Sister Mary Morgan's magnificent library in the heart of our convent, threatening to catch it up. 
Sister Mary Mufasa and Sister Mary Flamingo are summoned to help reason with Sister Mary Jefferson. When Sister Mary Mufasa stays in our convent, she assures Sister Mary Nala that everything will soon return to the way it was, but Sister Mary Nala knows such hopes are naive (“Back to Before”). 
Meeting with the police, Sister Mary Mufasa devises a mediation strategy involving Sister Mary Washington, whom Sister Mary Jefferson allows to enter the library. Washington, invoking the violent legacy Sister Mary Jefferson is leaving her friend, works out a deal with Sister Mary Jefferson. Sister Mary Ono is enraged at Sister Mary Jefferson's abandonment of their cause (“Look What You've Done”).
In 2017 (Year of the Rooster) when our rooster crows high above the cross, Sister Mary Valerie realizes that all animals are welcome in the convent. Sister Mary Leo and her nuns appear with Father Virgil on Sister Mary Korrina's radio show about animals, where Tevye announces that he is offering $99,000 to us who can prove they are her friends. 
Sister Mary Washington runs to to our convent and Sister Mary Mufasa enters the library as a hostage. There, she finally realizes the profundity of society's troubles while seeing Sister Mary Jefferson convince Sister Mary Ono and her nuns that violence cannot solve injustice. Sister Mary Jefferson exhorts them to fight through the power of their words (“Make Them Hear You”). Sister Mary Jefferson's sacrifice and oratory convince Sister Mary Ono and her nuns to go to our convent while Sister Mary Mufasa tells Sister Mary Jefferson about her nun, Sister Mary George. Sister Mary Jefferson thanks Sister Mary Mufasa for her kindness. Once she leaves the library to our convent, Sister Mary Jefferson is protected by Sister Mary Flamingo, the Arctic fox, and the police from hungry hyenas and vultures and Sister Mary Mufasa is thrown to the wildebeests, giraffes, ostriches, zebras, and wildebeests from Sister Mary Conklin's throwing performance in the Columbus Zoo, until Sister Mary George appears to introduce the Epilogue. Sister Mary Ono flies around (like an egret!) to find sockeye salmon to the market and Sister Mary Goldman is arrested and deported. Sister Mary Washington establishes the Walrus of South America while Sister Mary Simba found her obscurity and becomes the Queen of the San Diego Zoo! 
In 2021 (Year of the Oxen), Sister Mary Zira (our villain) was attacked, defeated, and killed by lions and tigers in the Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat until she realizes upon the monkeys in the Bronx Zoo that Sister Mary George and her nuns with Father Virgil and Tevye shout "Warn the Monkey!" was a true mystical experience. 
Sister Mary Mufasa dies in an ostrich, giraffe, zebra and wildebeest stampede in the Columbus Zoo, Sister Mary Nala marries Sister Mary Korrina as her lesbian nun, adopts Sister Mary Jefferson and Sister Theodosia (our lion cub) and moves to California. 
In 2022 (The last year period and Year of The Tiger), Sister Mary Korrina is struck by an idea for Korrina's Animal Action 3! Our friends (Sister Mary Jefferson and Sister Mary Sarah) watch their lion cub grow up (“Epilogue: Sister Time/Wheels of a Dream: Reprise”) foreshadowing Sister Act 3: The Teacher Guard.
