Simply divine

Bold, buxom, bawdy and brilliant – Bette is back in Noosa for one night only.
Don’t miss your chance to see Bette in all her glory when she takes to the stage at The J on 12 February.
After wowing audiences with sell-out shows at the Noosa Long Weekend Festival, Catherine Alcorn returns to Noosa with her cabaret show, The Divine Miss Bette.
Appearing as her alter-ego, Bette Midler, Alcorn offers a show to remember having trained under the watchful eye of Steve Ostrow, the man who discovered Bette Midler and who owned New York City’s famous Continental Baths disco and bathhouse.
Alcorn’s critically acclaimed show is a high energy, feel-good, rollercoaster ride of fabulous, celebrating the best bits of Bette.
In The Divine Miss Bette, Alcorn takes audiences back to 1973 in the Palace Theatre, New York.
Accompanied by a live, four-piece band and two back-up singers, Alcorn’s show has been described as remarkable and magnificent.
A polished and professional performer with over 10 years of experience, Alcorn said Bette Midler is one of her favourite characters to play.
“To be trained by the man who discovered Bette and then pay tribute to her life on stage is absolutely fantastic fun and a real privilege,” she said.
“I am so excited about bringing Bette back to Noosa. It’s a beautiful place with fantastic audiences.”
Bette will perform at The J, Noosa Heads, on Thursday 12 February, from 7.30pm. Tickets are $45 for an adult and $40 for concession and are available from the venue or by phoning 5329 6560.
