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!!!!

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.

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!!
