Celebrate the remarkable career of a singer, actress and international icon as the Cher Show comes to Canterbury.
The Cher Show, written by Tony and Olivier Award-winning Rick Elice, will take Canterbury audiences on a journey through the incredible life of the timeless entertainer.
From a young child with big dreams to a global superstar, it’s safe to say that no-one has had a career quite like Cher.
From her humble beginnings as the quiet daughter of an Armenian American truck driver, Cher - known then as Cherilyn - defied all the odds to become a showbiz legend.
The show introduces fans to the most influential people of Cher’s career, including her mother Georgia Holt, her husband Sonny Bono and her fashion guru Bob Mackie.
Making its Broadway debut in 2018, the Cher Show racked up two Tony Awards and became an instant crowd pleaser. Now, for the first time, the production is heading to the UK and Europe to impress audiences across the pond.
With direction and choreography from two Strictly Come Dancing greats, Arlene Phillips and Oti Mabuse, and a cast from West End sensations Six, Bat Out of Hell, The Bodyguard and Rent, this latest production boasts some serious talent.
The musical features a whopping 35 of Cher’s biggest hits, including If I Could Turn Back Time, Believe, I Got You Babe and the Shoop Shoop Song.
Being the only artist in history to have had a number one hit in six consecutive decades, you would be hard pressed to find another back catalogue like this one.
The show will also touch on Cher’s incredible film career, which earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress, her dedicated charity work and decade-defining fashion moments.
Discover how Cher became the iconic trailblazer and international entertainer we all know and love.
The Cher Show is at the Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury, from Tuesday, June 14 to Sunday, June 19. Book online here or call 01227 787 787.
