A stunning new production of the acclaimed one woman musical play. Starring the beautiful and sexy musical comedianne Alex Alderton, winner of the Theatre in Wales's Best Female Perfomer Award (2006).
It's 1969: Alice Dell is rehearsing her Judy Garland 'tribute' cabaret act. Alice is the look-alike, who has spent her whole career waiting for a chance to impersonate Garland -- a chance that only comes with her death!
"A tribute to the lady, but one that does not shy away from the pain, the pills and the shattered marriages . . . the glory of Garland at her best." (The TIMES)
'Someone Else's Rainbow' just closed to sold-out audiences at Neath Little Theatre, but through special arrangement with the Faculty of CCI, you can see Alex Alderton one more time!
