The Sister Wendy Musical is a vibrant and enchanting portrait of the world's best known 'art nun', Sister Wendy Beckett. The show follows the story of this media phenomenon, who became a household name in the nineties with her televised tours of the UK, Europe and America, spreading her homespun philosophy that 'art is meant for everyone'. But as the reluctant pop icon swapped her humble mobile home for the caravan of fame, her simple life would never be the same again.

From the Gilbert and Sullivan inspired 'Botticelli's Birth of Venus' to the joyous gospel sound of 'Touch A Celebrity' via 'Sister Wendy's Rap-ture', the bold score to The Sister Wendy Musical is composed in styles as various as the artworks depicted in the show. An all-singing, all-dancing cast bring this poignant parable about the world's only 'nun critic superstar' to life in vivid colour.
