Bette Midler to Visit Fallsview Casino for Conversation on 11/10-11

Audiences will get up close and personal during an intimate conversation with true Hollywood royalty Bette Midler as she takes centre stage to reflect on her storied career as part of Fallsview Casino's November entertainment series.

Self-anointed The Divine Miss M, Midler has graced her fans with record-breaking performances and earned accolades in all quarters of show business, including Grammys, Golden Globes, Emmys, a Tony Award and many more. Most recently, she produced the Tony Award-winning musical Priscilla: Queen of the Desert on Broadway and appeared in the film Parental Guidance, a comedy co-starring Billy Crystal.

Outside of the spotlight, Midler holds true her commitment to support various charities and fundraising efforts. She takes great pride as the founder of the New York Restoration Project, an organization that nurtures community empowerment and fosters civic pride in local New York communities.

November's lineup gets even more exciting with a stunning production of Fallsview Casino's Christmas on Ice that will completely transform the Avalon Theatre to make room for a skating rink. The high-energy, holiday presentation features a cast of championship ice skaters, dancers and singers, and one of the most advanced genuine ice ponds in North America - holding nearly 7,000 gallons of water.
