The live band project, the culmination of over a year’s preparation & planning sent the crowd into a screaming frenzy as Donna Marie appeared on stage for her 90 minute live stage show.

As the closest look & sound -a-like to the real Lady Gaga, Donna Marie delivered a spectacular high energy performance alongside her 7 piece band, that include members from the almighty West End Production ‘We Will Rock You’, who have played alongside the likes of such stars as Brian May and Kerry Ellis.

The Best of....

A few weeks ago I had a phone call from Pick Me Up magazine asking me if they could reprint a story about my Lady Gaga tribute & Impersonator act that had originally been printed early 2011. They are putting together a special edition called 'The best of' which includes the best stories of 2011. Its out to buy now.......

The Best of 2011

Wow what a year its been for my  Lady Gaga Tribute  show. I have worked with some great people and met some amazing little Monsters.

So here are some highlights from the past year, hope you enjoy :)

2011 started off with auditions for new dancers to take part in my very first Lady Gaga tribute show to take place in  St David's Hall, Cardiff. After many auditions we chose our favourites and got straight down to rehearsals and planning the show.

Gigs throughout the year included Festivals, Corporate events and venues throughout the UK and Ireland. We also performed in other countries in included Bahrain, Switzaland, Germany, Austria and many more. Here are some photos......

June was an amazing month, busy as ever plus I had the most amazing Lady Gaga tribute Theatre show 'Lady Gaga Experience' at St Davids Hall, Cardiff. A sell out with over 1000 tickets sold it made all the hard work worth while. An experience I will never forget :)

I also won my very first Award as a  Lady Gaga Tribute and Impersonator! I beat off stiff competition from fellow nominees Sinitta, Gareth Gates, Joe McElderry and Sophie Ellis Bextor to win a prestigious GOSCAR  (come see the photos in my galleries)  award for the Best Act of 2010.

My  Lady Gaga Tribute featured in various Magazines and newspapers such as The Sun, Pick me up, Belfast Telegraph, South Wales Echo, The Wales on Sunday. I also had interviews on ITV, BBC Radio Ulster talkback, Wales online and featured on a programme for SKY Living (to be shown in 2012).

Also Lady Gaga's management 'Ate my heart' couldn't tell the difference between some of My Lady Gaga Tribute photos and that of Lady Gaga.

A Monstrous year, I can't wait to see what 2012 brings..... Paws up!!!!

NEWS!!!!!

Dancers Wanted for The Worlds No1  Lady Gaga Tribute & Impersonator

http://www.donnamarie.net/ 

We are looking for dancers who would like to be part of The Worlds No1  Lady Gaga Tribute show. This show is taking the World by storm. 

Donna Marie is currently looking for local dancers, amature or professional to be a part of very successful tribute show. 

The appropriate dancers will need to be highly organised, dedicated, efficient and possess the ability to multi-task. They must also be enthusiastic and have lots of initiative. The most suitable dancers for the project will have a flexible but professional work ethic, as they will be required to work (practice and perform) independently and as part of a team in different environments (i.e.with videos, in rehearsal rooms, in the studio and live on stage). Dancers must be prepared to travel to and from Rehearsals. Rehearsals will take place at least once a week so dancers must be prepared to be dedicated and give there time. Strong interpersonal skills are also a prerequisite, as the dancers will be responsible for communicating with different clients & organisations at all levels throughout the promotion and touring of the project. Previous live performance experience is highly desirable, but not essential. This project is the ideal opportunity for an aspiring performing artist and dance professional with a passion for music, an open mind and ultimately - a willingness to learn and develop new skills.

Dancers must be over 17 years, proof of age will need to be produced at audition

Please note pay varies per event but there are no guarantees of how much work will be available.

Costumes are supplied but you will be asked to supply shoes for performances.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you would like a chance to be part of The Worlds No1  Lady Gaga Tribute  show, Auditions will be in the Cardiff area for more details and to book a place please contact Donna or Alisha 

Phone : Donna : 07788753753   Alisha : 07870970942   

email : gaga@donnamarie.net

THINGS TO REMEMBER.....

Dancers must wear suitable dance clothing and shoes. 

Please bring along 2 recent photos, 1 x full length plus 1 x head & shoulders (please note these will be kept by the LGT team). 

You will also be expected to perform a 2 min freestyle/routine of your own, so please bring your 2 min piece of music on CD.

Good Luck!! 

:)

The show was billed as a fund raiser for the Terrance Higgins Trust and as with most of Donna's shows, began with the rendition of Dance in the Dark.  Donna, dressed in the Brit Awards lace catsuit with huge fluffy wig gracefully took to the stage with a fabulous dance routing emulating that of Gaga.  Donna's vocals are 100 % live and sound just like the real Gaga.

Performances included Speechless in the Famous Lady Gaga Red Dress. Click the link for the lastest Lady Gaga Tribute setlist.

St David's Hall seats just over one thousand so best get your tickets as soon as possible as 700+ have already been sold for my amazing Lady Gaga tribute show.

Germany cancelled this week which to be honest is a blessing in disguise as it has allowed the LGE team to focus on our final dance rehearsals. Off to Germany again next week to open an Apple store, really looking forward to that gig. Flights sorted, Hotel Booked, Limo sorted, bouncers sorted, red carpet sorted!

Loving Judas but am really loving The Edge Of Glory, can't wait until my backing track is finished! Nigel ha nearly finished the video for the show and we have tested the projector and screen, 10,000 lumens! Apparently that translates to really bright but unfortunately I do not speak tecky!

Programs for the show are being designed by Derrick who will hopefully be taking some photos of my new Lady Gaga costumes for the show to add to the programs.

Jonathan is busy building the props and Vicki is busy finalising the choreography for Judas.

James is finishing the dancers costumes and Alisha is...oh yes, enjoying the weather in Rhodes!

The Dance Rehearsal DVD has been a godsend for teaching the new dances so big thanks to Vicki and Nige for their input.

Final dress rehearsals set for the next 3 weeks, loads of work I know but the show is going to be amazing, we are all really looking forward to it.

Club 2 Ten in Swansea on of Friday so I hope to see some of you little monsters there!

Oh yes, added some new pages to the web site including the Lady Gaga tribute set list, information on Lady Gaga herself and also a comparison between Gaga and myself, I hope you like the images, I will be adding loads more after the show as I do not want to spoil the surprise of my new costumes. I am so excited about performing in them, they look amazing.

Anyway, off to a gig now so will keep you posted next week

St Davids Hall Theatre Show, only a week to go!

Donna Marie, the Donna Marie, Lady Gaga Tribute and Impersonator, the world's number one Lady Gaga tribute act and show, will be starting her theatre tour in just over a week at St. David's Hall Cardiff. With the show now reaching sell out, there are only a few tickets left. Exciting new costumes, props, visuals and stage effects along with Donna Marie's Lady Gaga Tribute dance crew, this promises to be a show to remember. With Lady Gaga having performed for BBC on the Big Weekend, the stage is set for a spectacular tribute to Lady Gaga herself on the 2nd of June 2011.

Donna Marie says "The next 8 days are going to be totally mental with final costume fittings, rehearsals and preparation for the show. I have 3 gigs around the country this weekend as well as ITV coming to film a documentry about me on Friday. I have radio and newspaper interviews to do and still have loads of last minute wig styling and prop making that needs to be finished. I could really do with some extra hours in the days to have time to sleep. But every minute is worth it and I can't wait to get out on that stage and show my little monsters what I have planned for them. I still can't believe how I have managed to put together a theatre show of this size without a production company backing me but it shows all you need is determination, passion and hard work and never give up even when things get real bad".
