Flush with the whirlwind of overnight success, only decades after she started her career, the towering blonde ex-Vegas never-say-die show-business trouper Hope brings to the stage a pantechnicon of career wrong turnings and disastrous love affairs.

A truly gifted songwriter and captivating performer, Hope will be playing the piano and singing her self-penned all original songs from her brand new LP The Devil Made Me Do It.

In a virtuoso performance Hope heartbreakingly moves her audience to tears and then exquisitely makes them laugh out loud revealing the truth of her ‘Ritz to the pits’ life.

Hope is cut from the same fabulous sequinned cloth as Dame Edna, Lilly Savage and Danny La Rue, but she responds dismissively “That’s simply a bitchy rumour put about by Goldie Hawn.  She’s a nice girl – but can be a little jealous… Listen, I’ve always been tall for my height – end of story!

Still wearing the sequins she left the USA with in 1972, Hope tours her remarkable new show to very selective venues around the UK from June.
