ALWAYS OLIVIA: AN OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN TRIBUTE Comes To Belfy Music Theatre This Week

Always Olivia, a tribute concert celebrating the timeless music of Olivia Newton-John, will be performed at the Belfy Music Theatre on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., with the concert beginning at 7:00 p.m. Reserved seating starts at $72.

Fronted by vocalist Annie Aiello, Always Olivia captures the essence of Newton-John’s iconic sound. Aiello’s striking vocal resemblance has been described as astonishing, and her extensive career includes appearances on The Voice, collaborations with Richard Marx, and performances alongside Grammy-nominated artist Jim Brickman. She has studied Newton-John’s voice and performance style since childhood.

Aiello will be joined by a band of top Chicago musicians whose credits include American Idol, Jersey Boys, Oprah Winfrey, Frankie Avalon, The Drifters, and Mannheim Steamroller. Together, they present five decades of Newton-John’s music with historical storytelling, humor, audience participation, costume changes, and immersive video elements. Fans can expect to hear beloved hits such as “Hopelessly Devoted,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “Physical,” “Magic,” “Xanadu,” and “If You Love Me Let Me Know.”

Beyond the concert stage, Always Olivia has been endorsed by friends and family of Newton-John. In 2023–2024, the production helped raise more than $40,000 to benefit the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness and Research Centre, supporting her legacy and her vision of “an end to cancer in our lifetime.”
