Praise be! Tickets now on sale for Sister Act in Australia.

Praise be! The habit is coming to Australia. John Frost for Crossroads Live is delighted to announce the arrival of the most heavenly of musicals, Sister Act, which will make its Australian debut from August 2024.

The eagerly anticipated production of the Broadway and UK smash hit musical comedy sensation direct from London will open at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney in August 2024 and the Regent Theatre in Melbourne from November 2024 and tickets are now on public sale. 

“It is a joyous thing to produce a musical that has never been seen in Australia before and I feel very blessed to be bringing Sister Act to our shores. It’s a brilliant, must-see show that will lift audiences up and I know Australians will get into the habit of seeing again and again,” said producer John Frost.

Based on the iconic film starring Whoopi Goldberg and featuring original music and songs inspired by Motown, soul and disco, Sister Act is joyous and uplifting in equal measures.

Disco diva Deloris’ life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a murder. Placed under protective custody she is hidden in the one place she shouldn’t be found – a convent! Encouraged to help the struggling choir, she helps her fellow sisters find their true voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own.

A musical sent from above, Sister Act is the brilliant, must-see show which raises the spirits and warms the soul. Nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, as well as a total of six Olivier Award nominations across the original West End season and the London revival season. Sister Act will be returning to London’s West End from March 2024.

The incredible creative team includes Alan Menken (Music), Glenn Slater (Lyrics), Cheri Steinkellner and Bill Steinkellner (Book), Douglas Carter Beane (Additional Book Material), Bill Buckhurst (Director), Alistair David (Choreographer), Morgan Large (Set & Costume Designer), Tim Mitchell (Lighting Designer), Tom Marshall (Sound Designer), Stephen Brooker (Musical Supervisor), Michael Josarian (Vocal And Incidental Music Arrangements), Doug Besterman & Mark Cumberland (Orchestrations), and Sam Cox For Samuel James Wigs (Wigs, Hair And Make Up Design).
