Glimpses of the show

The Heavenly Spectacle

Hallelujah - the hit musical SISTER ACT is back! After more than 100,000 delighted visitors, the nuns return to Germany & Austria in spring 2026, presenting a heavenly show experience based on the cult film of the same name.

When disco diva Deloris suddenly has to go into hiding in a convent, two worlds collide: her groove shakes up the church choir, striking a whole new tone thanks to the music of 8-time Oscar winner Alan Menken (composer of Disney's ALADDIN & BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, among others), and causing divine chaos.

From Nightclub to Convent

Nightclub singer Deloris van Cartier accidentally witnesses a murder after her performance - and suddenly finds herself in witness protection. Instead of glamorous stage lights, she's placed in a conservative convent, where she has to go into hiding as a humble nun - much to the dismay of the strict Mother Superior…

In the church choir, the singer is meant to become part of the community, but the nuns can't hit a single note, so Deloris takes over the direction. With her in charge, every service becomes an event, and the masses attract an ever-growing crowd - when they finally perform in front of the Pope, the gangsters pick up Deloris's trail, and the nuns unexpectedly find themselves in grave danger…
