ROME
(Reuters) – A clapping chorus line of swaying nuns and a rock-and-roll
Mother Teresa took Rome by storm this week in a musical to coincide with
her beatification, the last step before sainthood.
The arrival of "Mother Teresa the Musical" is one of a series
of events being held ahead of her beatification by Pope John Paul on
October 19, six years after she died.
"
I dream, I hope, I pray for you," the sprightly Teresa character
sings to dancing members of the chorus representing the sick and destitute
in the upbeat
