Musical fans still have the chance to watch actress Whoopi Goldberg play Mother Superior in Sister Act the Musical.

On September 8th, it was announced that the star will be returning for five performances, after she had to cut short her previous run in the show due to her mother suffering a stroke.

 Tickets go on sale tomorrow, which gives those lucky enough to obtain one time to plan a day out in London complete with afternoon tea and a musical.

Sister Act tells the story of Deloris Van Cartier who is placed in a convent as part of a witness protection programme after she sees a murder being committed.

When Goldberg appeared in the show in August, fans were willing to pay hundreds of pounds for tickets, reports This is London.

A spokesman for producers Stage Entertainment told the news paper: "We always knew that Whoopi as Mother Superior would give us a boost but what we've seen at the Palladium is totally unprecedented."

After a spot of afternoon tea and watching Goldberg in Sister Act, visitors can end their day in style by staying at the five star Langham hotel, London.
