LOUISE MESSENGER
A Sentimental Journey - The Music of Doris Day
While most kids in the 80's were discovering Madonna and doing the Moonwalk, Louise was running around the back yard pretending she was on a stagecoach being Calamity Jane. From there, her love of all things Doris grew and grew. Louise loved everything about Doris - her songs, her voice, her dancing, her costumes, her personality - it was all heavenly and made not fitting in so well a pleasure.
Nominated for a "Best Cabaret"award at the 2017 Adelaide Theatre Awards - A Sentimental Journey, The Music of Doris Day is a celebration of Doris' life, music and loves - and also the story of how a 10 year old girl from Adelaide found the inspiration to start a career of her own.
