Dahlin! It’s the Jeanne Little Show
Friday 1 May 11:00am
Written by
award-winning Melbourne playwright, Kieran Carroll and directed by
acclaimed comedian, director and writer Ross Daniels, Dahlin! It’s The
Jeanne Little Show is a portrait of one of Australia’s most loved
entertainers, Gold Logie winner, Jeanne Little.
Jeanne Little rose
to prominence in 1974 when she began regular appearances on The Mike
Walsh Show. After becoming the most popular woman on Australian
television in the 1970s, Jeanne’s talents and career blossomed in numerous
ways. From appearances on numerous TV shows, to starring in the hit
musical Jerry Girls; singing for Princess Diana and Prince Charles
at the Sydney Opera House, to worldwide touring shows playing Marlene
Dietrich and Marilyn Monroe, Jeanne Little’s contribution to Australian
entertainment is immeasurable.
Dahlin! It’s The Jeanne Little
Show performed with great aplomb by Melbourne performer Caroline
Ferguson. The production traces Jeanne’s humble beginnings: raised by a
single mum, her youthful years in London, her successful and loving
marriage to interior designer, Barry Little, the many famous people she
met along the way and her attempts to be both mother and TV star. The
stories are wrapped in warmth, with Jeanne’s own brand of zany and
irrepressible humour always present. This high-energy and fantastically
funny show is the story of an Australian icon who did things her way.
Dahlin!
It’s The Jeanne Little Show is a wonderful show for all. It will
bring a smile, a laugh and joy to everyone.
