“What a blast!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2012 NEW

Had a great night out. The music is infectious. Grab an early dinner at nearby 21 to complete the experience and be prepared for queues to get in even if you have pre-booked tickets so get there a little early.

“Funny and fun!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2012

This show was included in a tour package, so I didn't have any expectations of it when we saw it. I absolutely loved it! I highly recommend it.

We booked the tickets online months ago and then we collected them at the theatre 30 minutes before the show. The performance was fun and the time just flew.It was worth the price!

“Wow!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2012

I am a musician and Broadway lover- also very critical. Let me tell you, I thought this show was going to be corny and not a great production. I was SO pleasantly surprised. Raven is shockingly AMAZING- the entire cast is absolutely fabulous. The singers are incredible, it's upbeat, does not feel like a long show, and truly made me... More

“Surprisingly Good”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2012

Never seen the Movie, never heard of Raven Symon, basically went because of a good deal on last minute tickets, anyway really enjoy all aspects of the show and Raven has great voice and timing.

“We loved it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2012

The whole family enjoyed Sister Act. We say three plays and I think this was everyone's favorite. We saw it just before Raven Simone joined the cast. The woman they had before was great. A fun evening.

“A surprisingly good musical!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 May 2012

As a big fan of both Sister Act movies, I really wanted to see this show! However, I knew that the music in the Broadway version was completely different, so that made me kind of nervous because the music is one of the big reasons why I love the movies! I was also unsure if Raven-Symone would have the chops... More

“Worth seeing”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2012

The familiar story but not the same songs. The movie was so well done it is a hard act to follow, but the cast was terrific and some of the voices incredible. Ticket prices for excellent seats were very reasonable by Broadway standards. Some of the nuances/jokes are easier to catch if you are Catholic, but worth seeing even if... More
