Last night (9 Oct 2012) Birmingham Hippodrome threw open its doors to greet a sold-out SISTER ACT audience with a heavenly host of staff dressed in their finest Nun's habits. Check out photos of them in costume below!

Over 1,800 patrons were welcomed to the venue by pint-pulling nuns to programme selling sisters dressed in praise-worthy outfits celebrating the arrival of the Broadway and West End musical on its final stop on the current UK Tour.

Based on the Hollywood hit of the same name, Sister Act played to more than a million people during its run at the London Palladium. This fabulous, family-friendly, feel-good show is packed with songs inspired by Motown, funk, soul and disco.

Sister Act plays at Birmingham Hippodrome until Sat 20 Oct 2012. Tickets £19.50-£42.50, call 0844 338 5000 or visit www.birminghamhippodrome.com (5% booking fee applies, calls cost from 5p per min).
