About Sister Act - Exclusive
"Alexandra Burke was born to play the disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier” The Stage
X Factor winner and vocal powerhouse Alexandra Burke takes over the reins as disco diva-in-disguise Deloris van Cartier alongside star and co-creator of Gavin and Stacey Ruth Jones who 'wrings every comedic drop' (Church Times) as Mother Superior. Tidy!
Completing the 'heaven-sent' (Telegraph) congregation are television and stage star Lesley Joseph, BRIT Award-winning singer songwriter Lemar, winner of TV’s Any Dream Will Do Lee Mead, and West End favourites Lizzie Bea, Alison Jiear, and Carl Mullaney.
Based on the beloved film and featuring a marvellous Motown-inspired score by Tony® and 8-time Oscar® winner Alan Menken, this story of music, mishaps and nuns on the run is a joyous and uplifting tale of finding your voice and singing out, with your sisters by your side.
A ‘must-see show’ (Daily Star Sunday) that has brought joy to over half a million people in London and on tour, don't miss the award-winning musical that raises your voice like no other.
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.
