Wish and hope no more W
ith such timeless classics as All I See is You, Son of a Preacher Man, I Only Want to be With You, Wishin’ and
Hopin’ and I Just Don’t Know What to do with Myself, it’s easy to see why British songstress Dusty Springfi eld was dubbed the White Queen of Soul. Now, singers Deni Hines and
Monique Montez will embark on a national tour, paying tribute to their musical heroine, Dusty Springfi eld in Dusty: The Very Best of Dusty Springfi eld. After sold-out shows in Sydney last
year, Montez has joined Hines for the national tour that will highlight the impact the singer had around the world during the era of black and white soul. Montez wowed audiences with her brilliant portrayal of no less than fi ve major roles in the hit musical, Dusty: the Original Pop Diva, so she jumped at the chance to be reunited with Deni on stage once again. Dusty: the Original Pop Diva was an outstanding success nationwide in 2006, grossing over $20 million at the box offi ce and playing to 400,000 people across 253 shows. The musical was nominated for six Helpmann awards including Deni Hines for best supporting actress. Monique Montez’s bio is packed with
credentials, acclaimed shows, awards and accolades from high places. From performing in We Will Rock You in Japan, Fiddler on the Roof in New Zealand, Dusty: The Original Pop Diva in Australia, to Helpmann award nominations for her Saturday Night Fever performance, Monique will bring to the show her years of experience and amazing stage presence. Deni Hines is one of Australia’s
Rose’s
foremost entertainers with more than 1.3 million album sales worldwide, top 10 chart hits in Australia, Japan, France, UK and USA, three major hit theatre productions - Jesus Christ Superstar, Big River and Dusty: The Original Pop Diva, fi lm and TV performances in Mao’s Last Dancer, Celebrity Apprentice, and the series Ms Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. She has also toured and recorded with Earth, Wind and Fire, Chaka Khan, James Morrison, Christine Anu and more. Hines has also written and recorded songs for the movie Taxi, international superstar Beyonce Knowles and many more. The show is a two-hour spectacular
by two of Australia’s leading theatre and pop vocalists, performing together and solo, backed by an amazing band in authentic ’60s costumes. This show will leave audiences wishin’ and hopin’ that she show will never end. Dusty: The Very Best of Dusty Springfi eld will be on at Cessnock Performing Arts Centre on Friday, May 18 and Belmont 16 Foot Sailing Club on Saturday, July 7.
