A word from Jayne
I am in the process of updating and revising the website. In the meantime, you will see details below of I Got Rhythm, the show that I launched with Barry and his jazz band earlier this year and which we are now promoting (see the review!). Also, details of some exciting engagements for the new year.
New Show
I Got Rhythm
This new show with Musical Director Barry Todd features the best of light jazz and theatre music.
The exceptional Barry Todd has an illustrious history in the business having been Musical Director to, amongst others, West End star Dave Willetts and the late Anthony Newley. Now he brings all his experience and musicianship to this exciting new partnership with Jayne.
On stage with Jayne, and Barry on piano, will be Dave Pullin and Mike Tustin on double bass and drums.
Not only are you guaranteed an evening of fabulous song and music, there will also be much laughter along the way! If you haven’t yet seen your ‘must see’ show, this is it!
Featuring classic standards from Gershwin, Sammy Cahn, Louis Armstrong, Johnny Mandel, Cole Porter & many more!
Along with fabulous songs and exceptional musicians, Jayne’s trademark style and easy rapport with her audiences will, as always, have everyone tapping their feet and feeling very much a part of this wonderful new show.
