Peggy Lee and Judy Garland
Playing to a capacity crowd at Ellington Jazz Club, Peggy and Judy is a glorious tribute to the iconic talents Peggy Lee and Judy Garland. Presented by the award winning and supremely talented Jessie Gordon and Ali Bodycoat, it us a delightful hour of top-notch vocal performances.
Dressed in gorgeous, co-ordinating and “dangerous” dresses, and evoking the look and spirit of Peggy and Judy, the pair work beautifully together and have a wonderful rapport, both with each other and with the audience. The duets in the show are excellent.
The always elegant Ali Bodycoat makes a divine Judy, livening the show with excellent renditions of ‘The Trolley Song’ and ‘Get Happy’, and mesmerising the audience with her heartfelt final solo of ‘Over the Rainbow’.
Queen of Fringe, Jesse Gordon (who is in the middle of her 46 show Fringe Performance Marathon), was a fabulous Peggy Lee - looking and sounding fantastic - with highlights including ‘Fever’ and ‘Is That All There Is?’
A must see for lovers of Judy Garland and Peggy Lee, and those who just love good vocal performances, with a lovely atmosphere and great vibe,
