The Riverside Musical Theatre Company are making a welcome return to the Riverside stage this June with their 3rd Musical in 3 years!!


Sister Act is the feel-amazing musical comedy smash based on the hit 1992 film that has audiences jumping to their feet! Featuring original music by Tony and 8-time Oscar winner Alan Menken (Newsies, Beauty And The Beast, Little Shop Of Horrors), this uplifting musical was nominated for 5 Tony Awards including Best Musical.


When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in one place the cops are sure she won't be a found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but in doing so, blows her cover. Soon, the gang is giving chase only to find them up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood.


Filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing and a truly moving story, Sister Act will leave audiences breathless.

A sparkling tribute to the universal power of friendship, Sister Act is reason to REJOICE!

The Salt Path

The Salt Path (12A)

Sunday 15 Jun 20253:00pm

What do you do when you’re in your 50s, lose all your worldly possessions and receive a devastating medical diagnosis? Potentially, you decide to walk the South West Coast Path – stretching from Minehead in Somerset through north Devon, Cornwall and south Devon to Poole in Dorset – a 630-mile trek equivalent to climbing Mount Everest four times.


Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs star in Tony Award-winning theatre director Marianne Elliott’s film debut as Raynor and Moth Winn, the couple who decided to travel the south west’s famously gorgeous rugged coastline in search of solace after a combination of crises in their lives, as captured in Raynor’s prize-winning memoir of the same name. Though emotionally and physically challenging, the journey also proves exhilarating and liberating, giving Raynor and Moth a renewed vitality and a deeper connection to both the natural world and each other. Featuring understated performances from Anderson and Isaacs and immersive cinematography and sound design, The Salt Path is an affecting, rewarding portrait of mid-life loss and rebirth.
