What does it take to become the next big thing? The next iconic diva?
Join this Brisvegas Bette, none other than Elizabeth Scales, as she
leads you on a riotous journey with her "Empowering and insightful
production" (★★★★ Kate Stark), Becoming Bette.
This hilarious & heartfelt original work is by no means an impersonation
show. Join Bette as she takes you on a hilarious, semi-autobiographical
journey of self discovery on her personal quest to define & refine what
it takes to become the next great diva.
Becoming Bette is "Bold, strong, self-aware, kind, generous, spirited &
unapologetic" (★★★★ Anywhere Fest).
It is 50 minutes of fun jam-packed with compelling storytelling, song,
dance, iconic silverscreen film re-imaginings &, of course, a beautiful
showgirl (because after all, "Behind every great diva is a beautiful
showgirl.. Upstaged").
Becoming Bette is a show for anyone who has ever had a dream, an
ambition 'to take Bette's advice. No permission required', celebrating
who we are.
