Get ready to raise your voice! Be in the habit of seeing live theatre this summer and head to Sister Act in London. Book Sister Act tickets on TodayTix.
Alexandra Burke takes on the role of Deloris van Cartier. BRIT Award-winning singer-songwriter Lemar is cast as Curtis Jackson, Lesley Joseph will play Mother Superior, and Lee Mead is Eddie Souther. Completing the cast is Lizzie Bea as Sister Mary Robert, Alison Jiear as Sister Mary Patrick, and Carl Mullaney as Monsignor O’Hara.
The Sister Act musical follows a similar story to the original 1992 film, but adds even more musical glamour. Sister Act sees lounge singer Deloris van Cartier placed on a witness protection programme, so to cover her identity she finds herself in a convent. Jazz singing and choral hymns don’t appear to have much in common, but what the sisters and Deloris do share is a love of music, community and togetherness. As the sisters and Deloris spend time together, everyone finds their voice and discovers their almighty good.

Whoopi Goldberg starred as Deloris Van Cartier in the 1992 film Sister Act, which quickly became one of the most successful movies of the early 1990s. In 2009, Alan Menken transformed Sister Act into a musical, incorporating soulful, gospel-inspired tunes like "Take Me To Heaven," "How I Got the Calling," "Raise Your Voice," and "Spread the Love Around."
Both Knight and Burke have played Deloris van Cartier in previous productions of Sister Act. Knight led the cast at London’s Eventim Apollo in 2022, whilst Burke portrayed the lounge singer during the musical’s national tour in 2016.
