JUDY & LIZA musical to embark on Spring tour

The musical, which charts the careers and relationship of Hollywood legends Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli, is set to tour the country this spring.

Beginning on 17 March and continuing throughout April, Judy & Liza will visit venues in Lancaster, Bolton, Lowestoft, Oldham, Barnstaple, Sale, Ulverston, Ilkley, Cheltenham, Milford Haven, and Cardiff.

Produced by Bill Elms Productions and On Song Productions, with musical direction by Francis Goodhand, and created and written by West End performer Emma Dears, who also appears as Liza Minnelli, this production reunites two of the biggest names in Hollywood show business, set against the backdrop of their infamous 1964 London Palladium concert.

Joining Emma Dears (Les Miserables, Miss Saigon) is Helen Sheals (Coronation Street, Judy!) as Judy Garland. Together, they belt out timeless classics including ‘Cabaret’, ‘Maybe This Time’, ‘Over The Rainbow’, ‘The Man That Got Away’, ‘The Trolley Song’, and ‘Together Wherever We Go’. 

Producer Bill Elms said: “We are thrilled to announce another UK outing of the sensational musical Judy & Liza, it’s a show very close to my heart as I worked on the very first run over 10 years ago. We can promise audiences a memorable experience as they rediscover the joy of live entertainment through this captivating show.”

Writer and actress Emma Dears added: “It is with pure excitement that we can take Judy and Liza’s emotional and iconic story on the road. Whether you’re a fan of Judy or Liza, or both, their story is unique. The show is full of love, heartache, and passion, and Helen and I have worked tirelessly to make sure we get every tiny detail just right. Join us for an evening with the mother and daughter who really did put the ‘show’ into showbiz.”
