Dolly gosh! Be a Parton the action at the Plowright
One of the world’s greatest Dolly Parton tribute acts is to visit Scunthorpe later this month.
The Dolly Parton Story, led by Andrea Pattison, will perform at The Plowright Theatre on Friday, 24 February.
All of Dolly’s most celebrated material features in the show, from her early country classics such as Coat of Many Colours and Applejack, through to the later smash hits such as Jolene, Islands in the Stream, I Will Always Love You and 9 to 5.
As well as celebrating the life and music of Dolly Parton, Andrea will be incorporating her own experiences and music into the show. Andrea’s first album of original songs Stormy’s Daughter was recently released and one of the songs will feature in the stage show. Dolly’s influence on Andrea’s writing and singing is obvious throughout the album, but especially evident on the Bluegrass track Nobody’s Baby – a heartfelt recollection of her less than idyllic early life in Sunderland.
Andrea is able to closely mimic Dolly’s unmistakable sound and phrasing, as well as her renowned onstage wit and charm. To find out more about The Dolly Parton Story and to hear the band’s recent recordings visit the website. Tickets, priced £18, are on sale now.
Tickets for all events are on sale from the two respective venue Box Offices, telephone 0844 8542776 or visit the website.
