Shirley MacLaine To Tour

Producers John Frost and Phil Bathols have announced that actor, dancer, director, author, activist and legend Shirley MacLaine will tour Australia and New Zealand in December 2014 in her show If They Could See Me Now – Shirley MacLaine.

Shirley MacLaine has forged a powerhouse presence on the world stage that spans seven decades and countless indelible performances, from Irma La Douce and Sweet Charity to Terms of Endearment, Steel Magnolias and Downton Abbey.

With her razor sharp wit and scintillating insights into the brightest stars and deepest secrets of American showbiz, an intimate evening with this multi-award-winning icon of stage, screen and beyond is a head-spinning journey from the golden age of Hollywood to the modern celebrity era of Oprah and Glee, spiced with the fearless outlook that has made her a best-selling author.

From the Las Vegas Rat Pack to Broadway, Alfred Hitchcock to Peter Sellers, Elizabeth Taylor to Julia Roberts, the Oscars to the French Legion of Honour, Shirley MacLaine has forged a stellar career that shows no sign of slowing with her imminent role in Wild Oats opposite Demi Moore and Jessica Lange.

Fresh from her Lifetime Achievement honours from the American Film Institute and her 15^thbook, What If ... a lifetime of questions, speculations, reasonable guesses, and a few things I know for sure, she returns to Australia to weave a tantalising personal history of the silver screen and the shadows that dwell behind it.

This exclusive audience with one of the most dynamic and enduring of Hollywood legends, arch raconteur and provocative visionary plays for one night only in Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Sydney on the 60^thanniversary of her debut feature role.
