About Sister Act

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, with Gavin & Stacey star Ruth Jones making her West End debut as Mother Superior.

BRIT Award-winning singer-songwriter Lemar is cast as Curtis Jackson, Lesley Joseph will play Sister Mary Lazarus/Mother Superior alternate, 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.
