Beverley Knight said, “It was such a joy to record our live version of the songs of the icon that is Alan Menken! He is a gift to the art of Musicals. This show is hilarious, but has so much warmth and heart into which myself and our cast could pour every note.”
Ruth Jones said, “My time on stage at the Dominion theatre playing Mother Superior was such a happy time and I'm so proud to have been part of the live cast recording of Sister Act. It's such a joyful show with such uplifting songs. We had an absolute blast recording it - and I'm so excited to listen!”
Composer Alan Menken said, “I am so proud and excited to have this new cast album of Sister Act that so thrillingly captures the power and emotion of this new production. To quote Glenn Slater's brilliant lyrics, this album ‘takes me to heaven'!”
Based on the iconic movie, this sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, sisterhood and music tells the hilarious story of the disco diva whose life takes a surprising turn when she witnesses a murder. Under protective custody she is hidden in the one place she won't be found – a convent! Disguised as a nun and under the suspicious watch of Mother Superior, Deloris helps her fellow sisters find their voices as she unexpectedly rediscovers her own.
