About
Brace yourselves Sisters!
The Broadway and UK smash-hit musical Sister Act is coming to Sheffield immediately prior to its record breaking London run, reimagined for the 21st century and starring West End powerhouse Brenda Edwards (Hairspray, Chicago, Loose Women) in the specially rewritten role of Deloris Van Cartier, TV & Stage star Lesley Joseph(Birds of a Feather, Young Frankenstein) as Mother Superior and Olivier Award-winning Clive Rowe as Eddie Souther.
Now set in present day, this sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, sisterhood and music tells the hilarious story of the disco diva 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 a fabulous 14-piece orchestra, original music by Tony® and 8-time Oscar® winner Alan Menken(Disney’s Aladdin, Enchanted) and songs inspired by Motown, soul and disco, this joyous musical is one hilarious night out you will never forget!
