Liberace - in his own words

1 Phoenix St, London, WC2H 8BU

This show is for over 18's only. ID may be required at the door.
Description

As the world's most successful entertainer in the 1950s, hear from the man himself about his beginnings in showbiz, his heartache and what made the world adore such an unlikely celebrity.

In this one-hander, Richard Lewis plays the flamboyant musician whose extravagant costumes, candelabra-topped piano and habit of playing classical music 'without the boring bits' helped him to fame in the 1940s.

His huge following live and on television kept him in the public eye long after his contemporaries had faded from view, and made him an obvious influence on Elton John, Lady Gaga as well as more surprising performers (including Bill Evans and Lang Lang).

"Lewis replicates Liberace's charm and winning way with an audience, and most importantly is a remarkably good piano player, whether charging through the souped-up classics spliced with popular song, or racing along in double-speed boogie-woogie." - All Edinburgh Reviews
