CINCINNATI, OH – February 3, 2014 —THE HALLELUJAH GIRLS by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten will hit the stage for Sunset Players starting this month.

The feisty females of Eden Falls, Georgia, decide to shake up their lives, after the death of a friend. The comic action focuses on turning an abandoned church into SPA-DEE-DAH, a full-service day spa. The comic tension mounts when an ex-boyfriend shows up unexpectedly, a marriage proposal comes from an unlikely suitor and an archrival vows to steal the spa. By the time the women rally together to overcome these obstacles and launch their new, improved lives, you’ve got a side-splitting, joyful comedy that will make you laugh out loud and shout “Hallelujah!”

Elementz helps build dreams, and brighter futures.

Elementz was founded and is supported by community stakeholders – from various ethnicities, backgrounds and careers – who believe in Cincinnati’s youth, and the power of music, poetry and art to positively impact our youth. Included are artists, teachers and mentors who encourage self-discovery, creative expression and individual passion. Because of wide community support, we give kids the respect and support they need to believe in themselves and in their community.
