Denise Nolan - The Magic of Judy Garland
Wednesday April 11th at 9 pm and Thursday April 12th at 9 pm (15€)

The first of the famous singing family to take her solo chances, Denise Nolan is now based in Blackpool but is sensibly making the most of the current wave of nostalgia for the golden days of big bands & Hollywood hits.

Always one to stick to her guns, this is a tribute to one of her idols rather than an imitation of her at times Nolan's voice does echo Garland's but this isn't
Stars in Their Eyes, it is star takes on star.

Combining just enough history of the troubled singing & acting star with a peppering of Nolan minutiae she bases her repertoire around Garland's memorable April 1963 Carnegie Hall concert accompanied by an excellent seven piece Rainbow Orchestra.

Garland's back catalogue never ceases to amaze & even with almost 90 minutes worth there's still enough left for a second show. It's the big ballads Nolan is
happiest with Stormy Weather, The Man That Got Away & I'm Always Chasing
Rainbows all impress & by the time she encores with the Garland signature
tune of Over the Rainbow she earns the standing ovation she receives. Few
performers would dare step into the role of Judy Garland but Denise Nolan does
with aplomb & her performance is both captivating & entertaining.

Her repertoire includes classics such as The Trolley Song, San Francisco, Swanee, The Man That Got Away & naturally, Over The Rainbow. Denise appears direct from her West End triumph in Blood Brothers, where she wowed audiences with her incredible voice. The Magic of Judy Garland is a show full of theatrical delights and will delight & charm fans of all ages.
