LEAD PIC: TREVOR ASHLEY
Steven Brinberg and Trevor Ashley are from different sides of the planet, but both will thrill audiences in October with their re-creations of Barbra Streisand, Liza Minelli and Shirley Bassey. Both will appear in London and Steven will have a one-nighter too at Brighton’s Ironworks.
Australian drag diva, cabaret legend and musical theatre star Trevor Ashley makes a triumphant return to London’s West End for one night only on October 9 in Queen Of The Moment. This will be Trevor’s third West End show, following the wickedly funny Liza (On An E), and Liza’s Back (Is Broken).
His latest show tells the inside story of his appearance on drag reality TV show Queen Of The Universe, hosted by Graham Norton, where Trevor was runner-up. He’ll give us Get The Party Started, The Rose, River Deep Mountain High and the hits of Shirley Bassey and Liza.
Trevor’s career covers acting, writing, directing and cabaret performing. His stage roles include the original Miss Understanding in Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert, Thenadier in Les Mis, Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar and the original Australian Edna Turnblad in Hairspray. He’s most recently starred as Paraoh in Joseph And The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. He’s at London’s Lyric Theatre on 9 October – tickets HERE
