We’ll Have Nun of It London Tickets
It’s 1967 - there’s a change in the breeze. A new contraceptive pill is available, same-sex relationships are legal and second-wave feminism is in full flux. Against this new era, four friends navigate life at St Anne’s Convent School. But as opinions collide and feelings towards one another shift, the group’s final year doesn’t play out as planned.
About We’ll Have Nun of It
A poignant, new coming-of-age musical which explores struggles surrounding Irish emigration, sexuality, and faith, We’ll Have Nun of It prompts important questions about growing up in a divided world and highlights the vitality of sisterhood during dark times.
With a dynamic, multi-instrumentalist cast and explosive soul-folk score you don’t want to miss one of Edinburgh Fringe’s hottest five startickets with Playbill, WhatsOnStage and Forbes billing it the pick of the festival.

Really talented group of artists. Great value in a nice, intimate venue. Thoroughly enjoyed this production.
As a writer of musicals myself and passionate about the subject I have a real polarity about shows which means I can sometimes feel I've wasted a couple of hours of my life, or I have been truly inspired, or anywhere in between. I loved 'we'll have nun of it'. I could sit here and analyse it and I would probably find a few things to criticise but I think it would be irrelevant as this show managed to have me entertained & engaged from start to finish. There are 5 performers on stage and it seems none of their talents are wasted (or should I say nun of their....) They sing, they act and they play instruments, in rotation. This is probably what impressed me the most of all, I watched quality acting which so moved me and next thing the same people are singing brilliantly or supporting others with the playing. As for the harmonies...????
