It is 40 years since Barbra Streisand graced the Prince of Wales Theatre with her presence in 'Funny Girl' and to celebrate the 40th Anniversary, Steven Brinberg will head to the U.K. direct from New York to play a special show in the sumptuous surroundings of The Delfont Room (Prince of Wales Theatre.) This will take place on 15 & 16 February at 11pm (doors open at 10.30pm). He will be joined by Musical Director Nathan Martin and a Special Guest (or two).

Steven Brinberg is the premier Barbra Streisand impressionist, performing his incredible show, Simply Barbra, to international acclaim both on stage and television (and performing three times with Marvin Hamlisch) as he pays homage to all that is Streisand. Steven does not lip-sync his performances but accurately portrays Streisand with his own voice! With over a decade of performing experience, his amazing show has Steven in demand literally worldwide!

Brinberg is now in his tenth year as the supreme incarnation of Streisand and should not to be mistaken for some low-class drag show. Simply Barbra is a labour of love and a sophisticated cross between homage and campy lampoon. Brinberg has captured perfectly not only the voice but the nuances and stage mannerisms of the real thing. This is an evening of comedy cabaret where award-winning Steven Brinberg looks and sounds more like Barbra than Barbra.

Earning ecstatic reviews the diva herself would kill for. Close your eyes and you will swear you're listening to Streisand. Brinberg also performs his remarkable portrayals of the vocal talents of Julie Andrews, Ethel Merman, Cher, Eartha Kitt, Neil Diamond and many more.

The live album of Simply Barbra is currently available on TER. A second album, Simply Barbra Duets featuring over a dozen stars, will be released soon.

Steven performs Simply Barbra worldwide. Sold-out performances are common, as are rave reviews! Brinberg has performed his Streisand impersonation on stages in Atlantic City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, Houston and the U.K. He completed a sell-out tour of the U.K. and the West End, following record-breaking runs at London's Playhouse and Jermyn Street theatres. Brinberg is the winner of the MAC Award and the Bistro Award for his Simply Barbra performances.
