Doris Day - 20 Years in Film performed by Sarah Weller & the Man Men

Sarah Weller sings from the Doris Day film portfolio including classics such as
Calamity Jane, Tea for Two and Pillow Talk. Doris Day’s film career lasted just
twenty years, debuting in 1948 with “Romance on the High Seas” and
concluding with the family classic, “With Six You Get Eggroll”.

Sarah Weller, a lifelong fan, takes us on a tour of the songs that highlighted the films and made her into the biggest female box office star ever. Interspersed with facts and figures, this is a show that celebrates the life of Doris Day and is timed to coincide with Doris’ 88th birthday and the renewal of interest about Doris through TV documentaries and her new charting album. This is a show suited to fans young and old.

“With a humble assurance befitting the experienced performer that she is, singer Sarah Weller treads lightly on the 'American apple pie' phenomenon of the iconic Doris whilst touching on some of the darker aspects of her often less than satisfactory relationships with the men in her life. No mere mimicry - this well-paced show is Sarah's own 'non-ironic' take on Day's life emanating from a genuine love of her heroine's persona as a great actress as well as the show-stopping singer who touched all our hearts!”
