An all new production of the Broadway and West End smash hit musical comedy returns to the UK starring Alexandra Burke* (The X Factor, The Bodyguard). Sister Act tells the hilarious story of Deloris Van Cartier, a 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. A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, sisterhood and music. Come and see the habits hit the road again and why this fabulous family friendly show has been seen by more than 6 million people worldwide.

Sinners Club by Lucy Rivers • 7-24 Feb • The Other Room at Porter’s


Welcome to the Sinners Club, a club like no other, where the band never stops and the drink keeps on flowing. Your hostess for the evening has some confessions to make, some songs to sing about love, jealousy, loss, and a story that will take you to hell and back. But don’t worry she’s not so blue, she wants you to have fun too. So come on in, speak easy, grab a drink and have a


listen – in the Sinners club every God damn sinner is forgiven. Sinners Club is pure gig-theatre from the same team who brought you ‘The Bloody Ballad’, set in a drinking joint where all lost souls are welcome. A co-production between an all-Welsh team of The Other Room, Gagglebabble (Wonderman, The Forsythe Sisters, The Bloody Ballad of Mary Maid) and Theatr Clwyd, Sinners Club will be directed by Titas Halder (St Nicholas). Expect blood and guts music washed down with a cocktail of stories about lives lost to sin. As dawn breaks and you emerge bleary eyed back into the world, their songs will be ringing in your ears along with the ominous warning, ‘Do you know what you’re capable of?’
