2022 Edinburgh Fringe
Looking For Me Friend: The Music of Victoria Wood
This is a joyous celebration of the great Victoria Wood, and Paulus is the perfect host. Warm, witty and with an adoration of Wood's work that shines through every moment, his rapport with pianist Michael Roulston was lovely to see. Wood's songs, as you would expect, are exceptional and sung with real feeling.
Funny and touching tribute to this much-loved national treasure. Written and performed by BBC One's All Together Now star, Paulus, ('King of Cabaret' (The Stage)) this brand-new show sees him in a fresh light as a lifelong fan and devotee of the Queen of Comedy. Celebrate her unforgettable songs and characters, and the power of friendships forged through laughter. From Mrs. Overall to Barry and Freda, everyone's there. The only thing missing is you. Directed by Sarah-Louise Young (An Evening Without Kate Bush) with Michael Roulston (Fascinating Aida) on piano.
