USER (15Jan13): Soul Sister at the Glasgow Kings Theatre was absolutely fantastic. A brilliant cast and a fabulous Tina...brilliant.
Alison (24Nov12): Watched Soul Sister this afternoon at Darlington Civic Theatre. Sadly the theatre was three-quarters empty which is a shame as the show was brilliant! The band was great, singing and dancing fantastic. And the actress playing Tina was an absolute star - brilliant singer and dancer! Thank you very much to all involved in bringing this show to us.
