Hallelujah! Heavenly casting announced for this summer’s musical comedy sensation, Sister Act.

Beverley Knight joins the sisterhood as Disco diva in disguise, Deloris Van Cartier. Comedy legend Jennifer Saunders takes up the habit as Mother Superior alongside an all-star cast, featuring The Greatest Showman and Tony Award-nominated actress Keala Settle, television and stage star Lesley Joseph, Hackney royalty and Olivier Award-winner Clive Rowe and Hairspray’s rising star Lizzie Bea.

Brace yourself sisters for this sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, sisterhood and music. Sister Act tells the hilarious story of Deloris whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a murder. Under protective custody she is hidden in the one place she won’t be found – a convent! Disguised as a nun and under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own.

Featuring original music by Tony and 8-time Oscar winner Alan Menken (Disney’s Aladdin, Enchanted), dazzling dance routines and songs inspired by Motown, soul and disco, this is one nostalgia-filled trip that you will never forget. Join our congregation at Eventim Apollo London and Raise Your Voice for the feel-good theatrical event of the summer.

Don’t delay! Book your tickets for this strictly limited season.
