The Story of Cilla Black A Celebration of the 1960’s Icon Cilla Black is back! ‘You’re My World’ is a biographical cabaret full of the powerhouse vocals and self-deprecating humour that made Cilla Black one of the UK’s most beloved performers. We meet the British Pop Icon and Television Personality at the peak of her popularity, belting out Anyone Who Had A Heart and Alfie and reminiscing about her childhood in Liverpool, her meteoric rise to fame and sharing a few cheeky showbiz anecdotes about John, Paul, George, Ringo and her old mate Queen Elizabeth II! With beautiful arrangements of Cilla’s greatest hits, songs include: It’s For You, Goin’ Out of My Head, Alfie, Step Inside Love, Sing A Rainbow, Anyone Who Had A Heart, Yesterday and You're My World. Written and Performed by Danielle O’Malley. Musical Direction by Mark Jones with a line up of piano, bass, and percussion.

Unique Selling Point
Danielle is a seasoned theatre performer and plays the part of Cilla Black in costume, telling Cilla's stories in Cilla's voice!? She channels this 60s icon with uncanny accuracy live onstage with 3 of Melbourne's finest musicians.
You’re My World is ideal for audiences aged 40 years and up. We have created two versions of the show: 1.? ? A gentle morning/afternoon show for an older audience (60 - 80 yo.) 2.? ? A slightly more dynamic evening show which includes Cilla’s rock repertoire as well as the classic ballads. (40 - 70 yo.).? The evening show is ideally performed with 3 musicians and the morning/afternoon show works best with 2 musicians .

Community Engagement
This is a unique opportunity to witness a more theatrical version of Cilla Black rather than just a live band performing her songs. Danielle's extensive music theatre background enables her to perform the show as Cilla Black in a charming and informative way, whilst retaining Cilla's comedy and wonderful musicianship.

Colleague Review
We were delighted with Cilla Black - You’re My World. Danielle succeeded in making these well-known songs her own, retaining the spirit, humour (and accent) of Cilla Black. Our audience response was very positive. An easy sell, it had one of the highest matinee audiences this year. Melissa is a great producer to deal with; prompt in replying and providing information.
