LUCK BE A LADY Will Be Performed at White Bear Theatre in June
OFFIE-nominee Beth Burrows celebrates the careers of Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra.
Beth Burrows returns to the stage with Luck Be a Lady, sequel to her critically acclaimed one-woman show Sirens of the Silver Screen.
The performance runs June 29th - July 3rd at the White Bear Theatre.
Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra dominated the stage and screen in the mid 20th century. But beside and behind these golden gentlemen were a plethora of powerful women who enabled their success. From irreplaceable dance partners to influential lovers, Fred, Gene and Frank did not do it alone.
OFFIE-nominee Beth Burrows celebrates the men's careers by performing the songs that made them shine and sharing the inside scoop on the stories that swirled around them, whilst bringing the women out of the shadows and into the spotlight. This is the sequel to Sirens of the Silver Screen, Beth Burrows' critically-acclaimed show about the lives of Judy Garland, Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe, which Beth performed at London's Upstairs at the Gatehouse and Tabard theatres, as well as aboard the ships of Seabourn Cruise Line.
Director Mark Giesser has written, produced and directed numerous Equity Off-West End and Off-Broadway shows. His writing work includes satirical drama (Good Morning, Alamo!) and comedy (Code of the West and How To Build a Better Tulip), and he has directed productions such as the UK premiere of Alan Alda's drama Radiance, and the 60th anniversary revival of the original stage play of Gigi. He directed Beth Burrows in Sirens of the Silver Screen, The Lady With a Dog, Strike Up the Band, and Once Upon A Mattress. He will soon be directing Call Me Madam at Upstairs at the Gatehouse, originally planned pre-pandemic and now to be staged in Autumn 2021.
