Show Civic Si it's. Over since if you could speak you wanted to be a professional singer didn't you ask yes definitely you couldn't stop me and for every take would be singing and dancing very traumatic and I think I just was meant to be on the stage so and he also changed a good thing I would I would think and yes sometimes not in the best of places some people probably want to mix because to be a little bit quiet I thought I would always be singin everywhere I went and how did you break into show business then. I'm Everyone told me I should go into entertainment because of my personality a look Les I was quite a quick walk a little character really and so I decided to auditioned and just to see how it would go and look away on the day I got a cost to go over to Spain actually so I was a dancer in a singer in shows for the Spanish organs over there. Now of course making the part your own. Yes very much but like I say because of my sense if you might still speak very much how to a great sense of humor so it's very nice to me naturally to be able to bring that on the stage I mean but also we're not trying to perturb I'm not trying to be a tribute to stay with it's all about celebrating the music of the sixty's and bringing the audience in to feel that being transported back to the sixty's with a collection of songs from the Shea 3 wonderful talent to go he will be thing in and downstate and we've got down this throughout the show and bring in the sixty's back alive really of this lady the iconic beehive will be and then the smoky eye so an old a classic case from just a you are talking about would still go that you're actually socked in the dresses I'm already having the big hog don't. Know Not quite yet. Yes well I'm preparing I'm just took you know the blond locks just to make sure they're nice Yes nice and fresh Yes I'm just at the moment in Liverpool I tell you what does the story is amazing and she sang some incredible songs if you got any favorites yourself that you would enjoy singing yes I have to say and we're doing something a little special with a bit of a mentally and I won't say too much but he come and see the show he got so we were talking not just all about just a lot very much to chew on the fact that she was a producer and she was alongside some great rices and the Bacharach So we're doing some wonderful covers but I have to say and you don't have to say you love me a classic and still stis on some of the preaching. And of course lots of music and lots of familiar music that the audience will love I would imagine yes so the shades open the show with a medley affair so it's like you were taking you back in time there was a charm and Beatle supreme covering so many artists great artists from that time also myself I will be singing. Basically a lot of influences that bill states have throughout the years as a performer so I refer Franklin with one of the greatest thing is so I get to sing one of Natural Woman which is one of my all time favorite it would be a pleasure to sing it.
