Whoopi Goldberg is one of the producers on a feelgood musical version of her smash hit 1992 movie, which is sure to be one of the biggest hits of the year. Book early for this one.

Sister Act tells the unlikely but uplifting story of Deloris Van Cartier, a disco club singer who witnesses a gangland shooting and ends up hiding out in a convent under the witness protection programme. There, she rescues the sisters from boredom and revitalises the congregation, and the community, through the power of music. Unfortunately, she also attracts the attention of the mafia and nobody can protect her, except a brave cop and her new best friends.

But you knew that, right? And you're probably as excited as we are about the chance to see the musical. Be warned: those meanies at Motown have blocked use of the original songs but the new score by Oscar winner Alan Menken (Aladdin, Beauty & The Beast) is beautiful, if not quite as sassy. And the sharp humour, as you might expect in a Goldberg project, remains as fierce and funny as ever.

Sisters are doing it for everyone this year. A new musical to cherish.
