This brand new show features two of the UK’s most accomplished jazz singers, Sarah Moule and Shireen Francis. The Ladies’ individual singing careers have seen them perform sell-out shows at Ronnie Scott’s Club, the Royal Festival Hall, on BBC Radio 2‘s Friday Night Is Music Night, and in theatres, jazz clubs and festivals throughout the UK.

Here, they come together for the first time to celebrate their musical icons, Peggy Lee and Ella Fitzgerald with anecdotes and personal interpretations of their signature songs in a wonderful programme of classic jazz. The Ladies’ exuberant mix of close harmonies and stunning solo work shows why they have all established themselves as jazz singers of the first order. Each brings a contrasting and original take on their chosen repertoire, from the understated purr of Fever and Black Coffee, to the infectious swing of The Lady Is A Tramp and Take The ‘A‘ Train.

Tickets: £15.00 (£13.50)
