Get back in the Whoopi habit
London Sister Act The Musical; 10-31 August; The London Palladium; Argyll Street, W1; £17.50-£65; sisteractthemusical.com
Yes we know it’s not exactly a highbrow culture fix. And that perhaps we’re a little too old to be getting excited about this
kind of thing. But it’s Whoopi Goldberg. Wearing a habit. Again. In the stage version of the best film she ever made –
Sister Act. For just 23 performances, 18 years after she starred in the original hit movie, Whoopi is coming to the UK
to take over from the brilliant Sheila Hancock to play Mother Superior, alongside Patina Miller who takes the lead role
of Deloris Van Cartier, in the classic tale of all-singing, all-dancing nuns. Whoopi’s only on stage until 30 August so book
your tickets now! It promises to be a Happy Day.
