7 years ago
We have all seen the films and we all know the words and this year you can experience Sister Act like never before right here in Liverpool.
On Saturday 15th September 2018 Liverpool Philharmonic Hall will have its roof completely raised off as a special HD screening of the 1992 classic, Sister Act will be shown on a large screen accompanied by a live full-piece gospel choir and band.
The Uplifted Voices Choir (who featured on The Voice and The X Factor) will give powerful, goosebump-inducing performances of hit songs from the original soundtrack like ‘My God’, and ‘I Will Follow Him’ to give you a brand new and unique live cinema experience that you’ll thank God you didn’t miss.
Sister Act tells the story of Vegas lounge singer Deloris Van Cartier (Whoopi Goldberg), who after witnessing a murder at the hands of her boyfriend has to enter witness protection to avoid a similar fate. She turns to the one place that she hopes he will never look – a convent! Disguised as a nun Deloris woefully tries to adopt her new lifestyle. And after several false starts, she finally finds her voice at the heart of the church choir
To get you into a soul-stirring gospel mood, the show opens with a special guest choir performance.
So get your habit at the ready and be prepared to be wowed, we will see you on the altar!
