BRILLIANTLY DISAPPOINTING

Incredibly funny, great vocals, brilliant choreography throughout but still disappointing. In my opinion there was zero references to the films. As a sister act movie enthusiast it was the music that made the sister act films and there was not one original song played. An absolute tragic failing for me…not even a direct quote or two. ALMA!!! CHECK YOUR BATTERY. Two years in the waiting to be disappointed…

NOT AS GOOD AS THEY SAY

Well without Beverly Knight it would be a loss all in all not that impressed. The singer’s just didn’t have it in them to pull it off. The stage setting is poor. Not that impressed with the Theatre’s seating that said we are in the Circle. Only halfway through it so let hope it gets better. It’s not about the singing that for sure and it’s not funny.

NO ORIGINAL MUSIC

The actors/singers were very good but when your reason for going is for the original music and they don't play it, well that's a disappointment.

VERY GOOD SHOW

I thought the show was very good. The singing and production great. But feel there was something missing. I expected more from the second act. No big finale. Slightly disappoint. Didn't leave the theatre on a high a little deflated.

MY VIEW

I can certainly see that there was a lot of hard work put in to the blocking and direction of the performance. The Ensemble was energetic and in good voice. However, I think the show was let down a little probably by the sound engineer who couldn't seem to find the right sound levels. Rather than turning up the volume of the 'Principles', everyone's volume was turned up. Meaning that the principles were lost within everyone else and therefore very indistinguishable. The scenery was very impressive and the lighting, equally so. Dispite a bit of a weak start and "disco diva" Deloris Van Cartier's voice not quite reaching it's full potential, it was still an enjoyable evening and I'm glad I went.

VERY DISAPPOINTING

So disappointed. Waited 2 years to see this. No whoopi but thought with the rest of the cast should be good. Wrong!! No Beverley knight or Lesley Joseph - no original songs from the movie WHY?? It’s like Frozen without Let It Go!! The songs made the movie. Poor sound could not hear most of what was said and sung! Certainly not worth the money I paid for the tickets. If you love the movie then the musical will be a complete let down..

SISTER ACT

Very disappointed. Went last night to see show with my daughter, we were so looking forward to the show as we love the film.Not one song from the film+little reference to the story line.The scenery +props no existent. The sound very poor,you couldn't hear clearly what was spoken. If you hadn't seen the film you might have enjoyed but if you had it's a no no .Love going to the theatre +sadly have to say this is the worst show ever.First time I've walked out before the final encore!!
