The twentieth anniversary UK tour of Glorious!, a celebration of the tone-deaf American socialite, Florence Foster Jenkins, whose sold-out concerts attracted audiences spellbound by her musical ineptitude, is about to hit the road with Wendi Peters playing the heroine.
“Last March, I was Florence at the Hope Mill theatre in Manchester. We had a ball but it was hard work. I had to learn to sing opera badly. I’m a musical theatre performer; I started my career in productions like Guys and Dolls and Sondheim’s Into the Woods. More recently, I was in Sister Act.”
