About The Show
Sister Act is a divine new musical comedy now raising the roof at the London Palladium.
When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in the one place cops are sure she won't be found - a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and an uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community, but in doing so blows her cover. Soon the gang are giving chase, only to find themselves up against Deloris and the power of her new found Sister Hood.
Based on the smash-hit movie, Sister Act features a brand new score by 8 time Oscar winner Alan Menken whose credits include Little Shop of Horrors, Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid and most recently the hit movie Enchanted.

When the team from Sister Act The Musical and Barnardo's got together to launch London's first ever Nun Run last year, few could have imagined what a success it would be and indeed what the sight of a thousand nuns would look like as they pounded the streets of the capital. The run raised over £30,000, which was donated to Barnardo's and was the start of an annual gathering of sisters...in trainers!
Following on from the success of last year, the Nun Run 2010 has been announced! On 2nd May 2010, join the crowd of nuns who will pound the streets of London once more to raise money for Barnardo's. For more information and how to sign up see our Nun Run page. Plus see how you could be in with a chance of winning a VIP weekend break to Sister Act!
