Patina Miller was able to bring such stage presence and helped raised the voices of these talented singers on stage! If thats not a glorious experience, man I don't know what is. I'd be standing and clapping too!
ok I'm annoyed that audience didn't jump up and give them a standing ovation b/c this performance is literally AMAZING. Honestly I feel like some people don't take Sister Act as a musical seriously when it's actually really fuckin good... like from the book to the score it's all pretty fantastic.
I agree. This show had music written and created by Alan Menken and Glenn Slater - two big names in songwriting royalties. I'm floored by the vocal harmonies especially towards the end! So good!
I saw this twice in London when it opened and the energy this song brings to the whole theater is amazing. SUCH a cool song! It has the spirit of sister act even though it's not in the film.
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews were doing this show for community theatre and it's very difficult. I have nothing but appreciation for these actors because this show is no joke.
The vocal power the ensemble(sisters) have in this number blows my head off. Absolutely amazing and congrats to Raven Symone! She will be amazing I hope
This is really a tough role for an actress to perform 8 shows a week… so demanding… like Effie in Dreamgirls or Tina in the Tina Turner Musical. Patina is a BEAST. Loved her in Pippin!
Before COVID I had been involved with a local community theater production of "SISTER ACT" as assistant stage manager. It was AWESOME to see this show take the stage and it was MORE AWESOME to see this Tony Award Performance!
Raise Your Voice is one of my favorite songs in the show! I saw Sister Act on tour three years ago and it was truly fabulous. Patina Miller is a showstopper
Just saw this show, or a version, in Houston Texas, and what a show! The music is incredible. This show needs to return to broadway. What is Patina Miller up to now, what a voice and energy!
I am so sad this didn't get best musical but it's ok cause Book of Mormon won, which is also a musical that deserved it. This performance I'm not sure if they knew they weren't gonna win but I think Patina or someone in the cast gave a pep talk backstage before this performance and said, "We might win, we might not win. Let's just go out there and have fun." They definitely had more fun performing at the Tony's than the other performances that year and Sister Act will forever be one of my favorite shows because of that energy.
I love this show so much it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to these songs. This was my favorite musical I’ve ever done, nothing can match my love for this. Even if I was a nun with a made up name and nobody could tell a difference from me and the others. I LOVE THIS SHOW
We peformed the show last week! It was such a delight!!! I played serveral roles such as Pablo and sang in our small choir consisting out of 3 of the best singers with limited text in the musical :D
I happened to see this show on the west end with Patina in her role and without any doubt in my mind, she not only was as good as Whoopi, she was better... I know, weird to think. She was amazing, energetic, sang like nothing else and devoured that role. She was brilliant and frankly should've just one every award that had ever existed
True story, I saw a local college production of this musical back in July. And I've gotta say, I loved it. Definitely makes me want to see the movie this musical was based on.
@@queerlibtardhippie9357 So? Hairspray was a non musical film that got remade as a Broadway show, then the Broadway show got made into its own film. I think Sister Act deserves the same because the stage version is excellent and different enough from the original movie to be worth adapting.
Sutton Foster in Anything Goes and the entire original cast of the Book of Mormon. Even a miracle like Patina can't be expected to beat that. Patina may be a miracle. But Sutton is a goddess. I still love them both though. Besides, she got her Tony this year. She's good.
@italy4blktop It's a part of the Gloria prayer: "Laudamus te, benedicimus te, adoramus te, Glorificamus te!", translates into "We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify thee."
I think it is important we remember some of the choir nuns from Sister Act who are no longer with us; Susan Johnson-Kehn, Ruth Kobart, Susan Browning, Edith Diaz, Rose Parenti (Alma), and last but not least Mary Wickes (Mary Lazarus) They are not here to see what has grow from their labors back 1992; but are still with us in spirit. R.I.P.!
It’s a shame that this show got completed overshadowed by Book of Mormon that year; Sister Act is/was truly an underrated pleasure to watch!
Honestly it's probably aged a hell of a lot better than Book of Mormon...
@@mcwyman7928 couldn't agree more!
Agreed, that seems to happen all the time though. The committees can only see one show at a time
But a win for Alan Menken either way.
yeah and the book of mormon musical isnt all that good anyway
That literally deserved a FULL standing ovation :/ ... those girls WORKED! ...
Damn right!!!

could not agree more
True dat
who else liked sister mary robert here?... she's amazing!!!!!!!
I loved her here and in the movie.
Her solo in this song is my favorite part of the whole album.
can we just appreciate mary roberts for a second
Only a second?
truth
She was my favorite character in both the show and the movie. She also was the sweetest. I'm head over heels about my little postulant nun! :P
Isa Benkhallouk
I will appreciate Mary Robert for every second of every minute of every hour of everyday until I die.
Isa Benkhallouk auditioning for this role next month and I just love her so much. Like shit man! That's a belt!
Broadway is the place where people go that don't need autotune to sing... Too bad they dont get more attention:(
Maybe you just listen to really crappy pop singers, because thank God, there are still good musicians and singers out there doing contemporary music.
Ikr??!! Ughhh
Nephania Black
I could not agree more!!!
+Alex Ross And the West End! Don't forget all us lot on the other side of the pond. Seems you guys get all the best shows though...
They deserve a fricking standing ovation. We did this song for choir, and it almost killed us to sing it, but they fricking slayed it.
Oh my gosh it’s so hard!! So high
Those sopranos though...daaaang!
They up there
I saw this twice in London when it opened and the energy this song brings to the whole theater is amazing. SUCH a cool song! It has the spirit of sister act even though it's not in the film.
So you saw Cynthia Erivo!!!!
Nope, it was Patina Miller both times. :)
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews were doing this show for community theatre and it's very difficult. I have nothing but appreciation for these actors because this show is no joke.
It’s back to London again! This time with Whoopi Goldberg!
@@annek1226 wait was it actually!?
this song gives me chills every time ahhh
their energy is so contagious...LOVE IT!!!
The vocal power the ensemble(sisters) have in this number blows my head off. Absolutely amazing and congrats to Raven Symone! She will be amazing I hope
I would cry as a 10 year old child listening this live
Me too. I used to watch the first movie with my siblings when I was 12. It was magical. Sweet good innocent memories...
This is really a tough role for an actress to perform 8 shows a week… so demanding… like Effie in Dreamgirls or Tina in the Tina Turner Musical. Patina is a BEAST. Loved her in Pippin!
Love this song but 2:55 really made me smile...so cute!!!
Before COVID I had been involved with a local community theater production of "SISTER ACT" as assistant stage manager. It was AWESOME to see this show take the stage and it was MORE AWESOME to see this Tony Award Performance!
The gal who plays the novice is ADORABLE!
Raise Your Voice is one of my favorite songs in the show! I saw Sister Act on tour three years ago and it was truly fabulous. Patina Miller is a showstopper
we are doing this song atm and people DO NOT understand how difficult it is. these ladies KILLED IT
Why did this just make me cry?! Good lord, I miss theater and live music!!
I love how Patina goes completely insane in this song! 😂 She is so perfect ❤️❤️
Patina Miller is a fucking legend
+Silverstorm1112 She's on her way to that status. In fact, she should be one of the Dynamites in NBC's Hairspray Live
Incredible vocal talent and such amazing energy!! Blown away
Those harmonies! They're unbelievable. They do things to me. Gotta raise my voice!
Just saw this show, or a version, in Houston Texas, and what a show! The music is incredible. This show needs to return to broadway. What is Patina Miller up to now, what a voice and energy!
This should have won best musical
***** compared to The Book of Mormon? you've got to be kidding...
Jose Lee Nope.
+Jose Lee eh Book of Mormon was not that great...
+Katie R You are absolutely right!
Jose Lee have you seen sister act
patina miller’s energy is what I live for
Just got goosebumps listening to these women sing! Wow
I am so sad this didn't get best musical but it's ok cause Book of Mormon won, which is also a musical that deserved it.

I'm going to watch this every day until I die
I've lost count of how many times I've watched this because these ladies can SANGGG
i come back to this all the time when i need to smile
I love this show so much it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to these songs. This was my favorite musical I’ve ever done, nothing can match my love for this. Even if I was a nun with a made up name and nobody could tell a difference from me and the others. I LOVE THIS SHOW
I see my costume up in our catwalk all the time and it just makes me wanna go back to that time
You can tell how much fun they’re having with it
When she said "bring it up" at 3:04 The Holy Ghost done entered the room! Beautiful!
We are doing this in choir and I love it
We peformed the show last week! It was such a delight!!!
I played serveral roles such as Pablo and sang in our small choir consisting out of 3 of the best singers with limited text in the musical :D
Went backstage to this show, so incredible, it's crazy how backstage how small the theatre is, so cool
Why did I find out about this song until now. Replay all day every day. This is amazing 👌🏼
This show was amazing! So glad I got the chance to see Patina
+Daniel Bria It was amazing but I'm California so I didn't get to see Patina. However I find a talented diva.
Yesssss! They threw down on that song!!! Love Patina!!!!
I saw this in Broadway in 2011 best musical ever , now its coming to Australia , worth waiting 13 yrs for ❤
I happened to see this show on the west end with Patina in her role and without any doubt in my mind, she not only was as good as Whoopi, she was better... I know, weird to think. She was amazing, energetic, sang like nothing else and devoured that role. She was brilliant and frankly should've just one every award that had ever existed
Saw this front row during the first week of it's run and I still remember the euphoria of this moment.
True story, I saw a local college production of this musical back in July. And I've gotta say, I loved it. Definitely makes me want to see the movie this musical was based on.
I saw this and it was AMAZING. Definetly one of my favourites
8 years later and I still can't get over Mary Roberts part at 2:40
The chills!!
Yea there were some chills in there
I just saw this show last month in NY with my church. Outstanding!
omg got chills yo! she hit that note :D, i wanna c this like live!!
They are voice so powerful!😲
Fabulous talent doing their best! Bravo, ladies!
Is it me or do they still look stunning even though only there faces are showing?
she has an amazing voice
i have rewatched this over 100 times
I got to see this with Raven Symone. She's my queen
You mean the girl who's from every continent in Africa? 😂😂😂😂
+Disnerd 4eva did you mean country? Africa is a continent
+Arimel09 no there's an interview where raven symone literally says she's from every continent in Africa.
+Meredyth Wilson I'm jealous because Raven was my preteen hood.
I love Raven too!
This made me tear up. They sang their asses tf off!
Disney REALLY needs to make this into a film. If they never do, it's on my list of stuff I'd love to do if I ever succeed at becoming a film producer.
Well the musical is based on the movie "Sister Act"
theres literally a movie for it...
@@queerlibtardhippie9357 So? Hairspray was a non musical film that got remade as a Broadway show, then the Broadway show got made into its own film. I think Sister Act deserves the same because the stage version is excellent and different enough from the original movie to be worth adapting.
I agree, it was such a wonderful show!
Amazing show! Good fun and full of energy, want to go again and will be buying the soundtrack :)
Going to see them live!!! Can't wait, and shrek the musical is using some lines from all Broadway musicals, wicked for example
this show was the best show I have ever seen!!!!
This performance makes me WEEP. Amazing
That my 1# favorite song from broadway 1000%.
My drama teacher shared this “education al video” (that’s what she calls it) to us during class. I just really loved it and came back to see it again
Whenever I need a pick me up, I just watch this. Ahhh… theatre.. I love it!
she is glorious!
Sutton Foster in Anything Goes and the entire original cast of the Book of Mormon. Even a miracle like Patina can't be expected to beat that. Patina may be a miracle. But Sutton is a goddess. I still love them both though. Besides, she got her Tony this year. She's good.
I'm sure their watching from above and are proud it's still going on
alan menken is a composing prodigy...excellent execution by the cast!
@italy4blktop It's a part of the Gloria prayer: "Laudamus te, benedicimus te, adoramus te, Glorificamus te!", translates into "We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify thee."
This show should have won at least one Tony. It’s such a fun show! Also no standing ovation? (At least two people did)
I wish I had the money to go to a different Broadway show every night. There's so many amazing shows out there now!
Reminds me of American Horror Story: Asylum lol
lmao same
So cool that Whoopi is the opening MC for her own show in musical!
Joel Ting She also played the Mother Superior when the show was in London 😊
I love this..... But the original sister acts entertainers will always be the best forever.......
Amazing
I just saw this on Sunday in Boston and it was excellent!
I love this song.
Can't wait to see it Friday night when my local junior \seinor highschool does this for their spring musical
WOW- Marla Mindell is awesome Glad she got on Broadway :)
I love this song
wow! amazing. all the sopranos were up there!!
Still the best version of raise your voice
I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS SHOW DIDNT GET THE TONY SAME FOR PATTINA SHE IS FABOULOUS
I think it is important we remember some of the choir nuns from Sister Act who are no longer with us;
Susan Johnson-Kehn, Ruth Kobart, Susan Browning, Edith Diaz, Rose Parenti (Alma), and last but not least Mary Wickes (Mary Lazarus)
They are not here to see what has grow from their labors back 1992; but are still with us in spirit. R.I.P.!
My local highschool is doing this show next month on March 16 &18 for their annual school musical
I just fainted
I LOVE THIS MUSICAL UGH
I saw this a few weeks ago in Liverpool, it was soooo funny x-) and the woman playing Dolores was incredible
i watched this in new york city for a field trip left at 6 and came back at 11 30. IT HAD RAVEN SIMONE!!!!!!
they ate that shit...beast mode.
I can't say i loved this show but this song was the best thing
My school at Tuscarora High did this musical in 2017, this year 😄😄
this puts me in the best mood!
i took a trip in 6th grade to NYC and i watched Sister Act and it was funny and it had this song! Staring Raven Simone!!
there's one broadway show on my list to see!!!
Thanks soo much for sharing!!! Finally a REAL video of the Tony Awards with Whoopi, not just a link with some annoying music! You´ve made my day! :-)
Sister Mary Robert in the film was my first ever girl crush and geez...I think I'm in love again
