Barbra: The Greatest Star

“Looking down, you’ll never see me. Try the sky, ’cause that’ll be me…”

Artist. Icon. Force of nature. We’re marching our band out and beating our drum with this concert event honouring a trailblazing musical storyteller, and the music that’s shaped generations.  

Barbra Streisand is a uniquely luminous, uncompromising, and boundary-breaking talent, and Barbra: The Greatest Star celebrates her peerless repertoire, legendary humour, and ground-breaking impact on music and culture, with the same fearlessness she’s shown on stage and screen for over sixty years.  

Director and performer Brittanie Shipway (Once On This Island; The Pirates of Penzance) collaborates with three other incredible vocalists and a live three-piece band, to showcase the solid-gold Streisand songbook – sharing insight and new perspectives on the songs you love, and serving up a few surprises along the way. Expect an invigorating mix of soaring ballads, brassy anthems, and intimate moments that evoke the heart of Barbra’s unmatched artistry.  

This isn’t just a tribute show to the way we were – it’s an illuminating journey through the legacy of a superstar.
