Sister Act – Review
Review from S.T:
Easy to follow and so much fun!
This was such a fun musical! I went with my 9-year-old, and we both loved it. To help my child understand the story, we watched the movie “Sister Act” beforehand, which worked perfectly. The show itself was very easy to follow, and even kids can enjoy it without any problems. Just reading the short synopsis in the program is enough.
But the real highlight was the chorus – absolutely breathtaking! Every solo performance was a showstopper. The comedy was spot on, so even without understanding every word, we were laughing out loud the entire time. My child was laughing right next to me, too.
The production was dazzling, with that “classic Broadway” flair. The finale had the whole audience on their feet in a standing ovation. Experiencing the cheers and energy of the New York crowd was incredibly moving.
We were lucky enough to sit in the center of the orchestra section, which made it even more unforgettable. When I visit New York again, this is definitely a show I’d want to see once more. And of course, I’ll book through At New York again!
