SISTER ACT

Can’t fault the show but like others left disappointed with no original film music.

4.0 star rating Carla Preston from London, England

DIFFERENT SONGS TO FILM

Great musical but why are all the songs different to the film? To not even have ‘I will follow him’ was so disappointing. I think the whole audience expected it in the finale or as an encour but were left feeling flat. It should be more widely advertised that the songs are different and you won’t be able to sing along.

GREAT SHOW BUT MISSED SOME OF THE FILM SONGS.

Loved the show, it's such fun. Enjoyed every moment. But was hoping to "sing along" at the end, especially as the announcement at the start re photos seemed to indicate there would be a finale in which we could all take part.

AN ENJOYABLE SHOW

I went to see Sister Act last night at the Dominion Theatre. Good show, nice songs and great acting. It could have been a bit better but overall I enjoyed it.

MISSING SOMGS

Really enjoyed the show but like previous writer my favourite not in the show - I will follow him. Said in programme a copyright issue. Disappointed but acting and singing superb.

ENERGETIC SHOW WITH GOOD PERFORMANCES BUT SOME DISRESPECT FOR CATHOLIC FAITH

I enjoyed the music and Ruth Jones was superb as Mother Superior. Some excellent performances and good staging. However as a Catholic Christian I felt uncomfortable with some aspects of the script, use of crucifixes, and very camp priest character all of which at times seemed to be mocking my faith.

FLAT

The cast were great but the music to the show was just not what we were expecting . It felt very flat and left us feeling very disappointed and bored .

MISSING WOW FACTOR

So pre visit I expected for it to be like the movie regarding the songs! The story line was but no songs were sung which was really disappointing. Let's be honest, the songs make the movie not the story line! Good acting and singing but defo in my lower range of theatre shows I've seen.

SISTER ACT

I loved the actual movie and was so excited to go to this show, was absoloutely gutted that there was no music from the movie and all songs I had never heard of before , i felt this was a bit of a scam to be honest and for that reason i would not recommend. Yes the cast were very good, great voices, comedy was funny but not value for money Im afraid, a bit cheesy and film lovers like me will not be impressed.

NOT EVEN BEVERLEY KNIGHT COULD SAVE THIS GARBAGE

I saw this musical on 20 April 2024 at the Dominion Theatre. I cannot express how awful it was. It is not funny and even the talented Beverley Knight cannot save this rubbish. Hugely disappointing. Whilst (regrettably) I stuck it out hoping it would get better, unsurprisingly several people did not return for the second half. I wish I had too.

1.0 star rating Susan from London, England

SHOCKINGLY BAD

I was hugely disappointed by this show. Not true to the original Sister act in any way - no original songs and one big Pride extravaganza…which if that’s what you’re looking for you’ll no doubt enjoy, but complete falsely advertised. If we weren’t in the middle of a very long row we would have walked out. Quality of the singing was very poor for a west end show - vocalists going flat all over the place. Would never watch it again or go to anything else by the same producer!
