About Fiona Harrison in Cabaret

The programme blends popular favourites from the 1940s, 50s, 60s and 70s with Opera, Musical Theatre classics and Postmodern Juke Box. Songs made famous by Abba, Dolly Parton, Cilla Black, Connie Francis, Doris Day and Judy Garland can sit in the same evening as grand opera, and the show concludes with the aria Nessun Dorma.

Cabaret is Fiona's most flexible format. She offers a bespoke service and will tailor her performance to the season and the occasion, from a Pearly Queen sing-along for St George's Day to 1940s shows for VE Day, D-Day and Remembrance, and festive programmes for Christmas and New Year.

In the more intimate setting of a cabaret room, her appeal comes from her sparkling personality, her ability to engage with the audience and her sense of fun. Everything is performed in glamorous costume, and where the theme calls for it, in authentic period uniform.

◆ ON THE DAY ◆

Just add a room.

How it works

Fiona is completely self-contained. She brings her own sound system and backing tracks that she has had recorded to her own orchestral arrangements, so there is no band to book unless you want one.

Fiona is also able to accept bookings to sing at weddings, including as a special guest cabaret performance during the reception.

Fiona likes to tailor each show to the venue and the occasion, so tell her what you have in mind when you enquire.

Who it suits

Dinner cabaret, hotels, cruises and special occasions where one performer needs to carry the evening.
