Book this show◆ ABOUT THE SHOW ◆
Chin up, chaps!
Fiona's close harmony work is the signature of the show. She records two harmony parts onto her backing track and sings the melody live, so that she appears to sing in triplicate. The result sounds like the Andrews Sisters and is unlike any other act on the 1940s scene.
There are three versions, one for each uniform. In the ATS version Fiona takes the rank of Lance Corporal and sings Mairzy Doats and Dozy Doats, Run Rabbit Run and Lili Marlene, concluding with a flag-waving Vera Lynn finale. The WRNS version, The Fleet's in Port Again, brings the nautical favourites. The WAAF version, Straighten Up and Fly Right, features The Dambusters and is well suited to RAF functions and mess dinners.
Whichever uniform you choose, the evening is packed with 1940s favourites, including White Cliffs of Dover, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Leaning on a Lamppost, Run Rabbit and Babies of the Blitz. Fiona concludes with Land of Hope and Glory in a British-themed finale.
