(Lisa Bobbert)
In March
2017, Dame Vera Lynn turned 100 years old. To this day, the world remains
familiar with her warm and beautiful voice. A voice, that some say, helped to
win a war. A few years ago she was Number One on the hit parade in England,
with a re-release of her wartime album Hits
of the Blitz. Not many 97 year olds can boast that achievement!
Songs
such as We’ll Meet Again, The White Cliffs
of Dover, I’ll be Seeing You, Lili Marlene, We’ll Gather Lilacs, There’ll
Always be an England and, of course, A
Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square are just a few of the many familiar and
favourite songs featured in this tribute to a British National Treasure.
A Nightingale Sang - A Tribute To Vera Lynn stars Lisa Bobbert and featuring
Anthony Stonier, with Musical Director Evan Roberts on piano. Take a nostalgic
trip down an English country lane and remember the songs and stories that won
the war.
A Nightingale Sang has one performance on June 3 at
14h00 at the Hexagon Theatre on the University of KwaZulu-Natal
Pietermaritzburg campus. Bookings R110 at webtickets.co.za
