Top talent tour de force

Songs for Nobodies @ Pumphouse Theatre, by Tadpole Theatre

A show and a series of performances that will live in my imagination for a very long time”.  (Andrew Whiteside)

RBA’s Jackie Clarke is STAR POWER TIMES FIVE! ‘Songs For Nobodies requires a unique singer and actress who can transform into ten different characters – five of them legendary singers.

Fresh from her triumph in Chicago The Musical the iconic Jackie Clarke proved a perfect fit for Joanna Murray Smith’s unusual, cleverly crafted script.

Five very different women meet five equally diverse divas in a series of vignettes that give a tantalising insight into all their lives, with excerpts of songs made famous by Judy Garland, Patsy Cline, Edith Piaf, Billie Holliday and Maria Callas. Well-known musician Penny Dodd accompanies Jackie Clarke on piano.

Directed by Janice Finn, whose experience moulded  this extraordinary show into an entertainment'
