Five witty and poignant stories of ‘nobodies’, ordinary women who each have their lives changed by a brief encounter with an iconic ‘somebody’.
Fate brings these women together; Judy Garland and a bathroom attendant, Patsy Cline and an usher, Edith Piaf and a librarian, Billie Holiday and a young reporter, Maria Callas and a nanny.
Songs for Nobodies sees Jackie Clarke (The Lady Killers, Chicago, Mamma Mia) bring 10 characters to life in a tour de force performance.
“Clarke’s genius lies in summoning these icons without slipping into mimicry….. you feel the song take possession. It wasn’t imitation; it was visitation”. - Broadway World.
“Songs for Nobodies is a triumph” - Andrew Whiteside
