Star Online , April 16, 2015
The auction ohio Star Observer was planning on speaking to Rhonda Burchmore about her stunning new show, Cry Me A River: The World of Julie London, but Burchmore had other things on her mind – namely, her online impersonator.
Aspiring Melbourne comedian Thomas Jaspers auction ohio is garnering auction ohio something of an online following by frocking up on YouTube and delivering ribald bon mots as Burchmore under the Twitter handle Rhonda Burchmore@LovelyLeggyLass .
This Twitter imposter is really cheeky. People ask me, What are you doing to get rid of him? but I figure, If I can t beat him I may as well join him, so I m on Twitter now and we follow auction ohio each other. It s a mutual love affair between the two Rhondas, Burchmore said.
She s one of those cool jazz voices I ve always loved, but I found no-one had really told her story. I have to credit David Campbell – he was the artistic auction ohio director of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival at the time and he said to me, How about we present Rhonda in a new light? she explained.
Written by Burchmore and Gary Young and based on an original treatment by Frank Howson, the show debuted to great acclaim at Cabaret Festival before showing in Brisbane and has been developed into a two-act auction ohio show complete auction ohio with big band and set. Burchmore was keen to point out one thing, though: she wouldn t be attempting to impersonate the late singer.
While Burchmore acknowledged that London s life wasn t as scandalous as that of some of the other 50s divas – Judy, Marilyn et al – auction ohio she said she hoped audiences would come away with a greater understanding auction ohio of the artist and the real family gal behind the glamorous image. auction ohio
It s funny you should say, because I ve been workshopping a stage version of the book, telling auction ohio my life story. There s a lot of material there, so it d be fantastic to bring it into the major cities with a big band, dancers and special auction ohio guests. I d like to do it before I get too old and have to call it Legless!
