Tribute to Whitney Houston Will Raise the Roof at Parr Hall This Autumn

Whitney Houston fans are in for a treat as the next best thing, BeLinda Davids, is coming to Warrington's Parr Hall on Thursday 27 October. Tickets and information at 01925 442345 or www.pyramidparrhall.com.

The Greatest Love of All - The Whitney Houston Show is a breathtaking production featuring the impeccable vocal talents of the South African singer described by many as "jaw-droppingly similar" to the beloved pop diva's.

The show is a beautifully-crafted tribute to one of the world's most revered singers, complete with a full band and dancers who bring to life more than two hours-worth of Whitney Houston's best-loved pop hits.

In addition to her pitch perfect sound, Davids openly acknowledges that Houston was her personal idol and the original inspiration for her own career when she began singing professionally at the age of 14.

She said: "I want people to come and remember Whitney when she was at the top of her game and when she was fabulous."

People all over the world have done exactly that with the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa already hosting sell-out performances in the show's first two years of touring.

The Greatest Love of All features 20 of Houston's most popular tracks taken from the full span of her career, including I Will Always Love You, I Wanna Dance With Somebody, I'm Every Woman, Didn't We Almost Have It All, Exhale (Shoop Shoop) and Million Dollar Bill to name a few.

Davids is directed by Showtime Management creative director John Van Grinsven Senior and joined on tour by the production team responsible for the worldwide hit tribute show Michael Jackson HIStory.
