Guests staying at a Blackpool B&B will soon be able to enjoy a fantastic performance of the musical based on the life of iconic country music star, Dolly Parton.

Dolly will be staged at the Opera House Theatre in the Winter Gardens on June 28th as a two hour show of music and dance.

Jeanne Jordan takes the lead role and guides the audience on a journey through Parton’s early career right up to her present worldwide fame.

Jordan has performed as Parton before in various country music shows but she will be joined by newcomer Emily Clarke who will portray the star in her younger years.

They will be backed up by the six-piece BJ Thomas band formed of some of the UK’s finest country musicians.

Visitors can expect to hear Parton’s hit songs, 9 to 5, Jolene, Islands in the Stream and Here you Come Again, in the performance.

This show will no doubt prove a real treat for both lovers of music and theatre staying at a Blackpool B&B.
