From
West End to Broadway and Beyond will have one
performance only at the Hexagon Dive in Pietermaritzburg and showcases the
sublime voice and supreme artistry of gorgeous Cat Simoni; performer par
excellence.
With complete mastery of voice and song and
equally at home in the stage musical, rock and pop environments, Cat’s considerable
talent can transform well-worn numbers into new-minted gold. The show is
trademark Cat. From West End to Broadway
and Beyond tells the exhilarating story of how her life in London changed
overnight from unknown ‘Westville girl’ pushing numbers in a City accountant's
office, to a five-star ‘diva’, delivering top class, high-voltage performances
at London's swanky venues; The Ritz, The Dorchester, The Park Lane
Intercontinental and Berkeley Square Casino. Cat's hugely entertaining story of
her crazy showbiz rollercoaster ride is at once spicy, irreverent and hilarious
as she suddenly finds herself rubbing shoulders with high society's rich,
eccentric and famous…!
Cat's personal odyssey is the platform from
which she delivers some of the biggest showstoppers from some of the biggest
shows of all time. From West End to
Broadway and Beyond is Cat's homage to the greatest songwriting
partnerships ever to grace London's West End and New York's ‘Great White Way’. Unforgettable,
timeless show-songs from Rodgers & Hart's wartime Carousel, Lerner & Lowe's glorious My Fair Lady and Camelot,
Kander & Ebb's Cabaret and Rice
& Lloyd Webber's smash hits Evita,
Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, Phantom of The Opera and Sunset Boulevard are all given the extra-special, inimitable Cat
treatment. With her flexible voice and magnetic stage presence, she performs with
consummate ease the show-songs that shook the world.
Cat also has some surprises in store...!
She just can't resist tossing some of her personal all-time favourites into the
'showtime' mix. Expect her passionate take on iconic pop mega-hits like Queen's
Bohemian Rhapsody and Killer Queen, The Eagles' Hotel California and Adele's Someone Like You…to name a few.
