Jonathan Booth steps into the heels of legendary Diva, Bette Midler, as she explores the key moments in her life and career. From her early performances at New York City's Continental Baths (a gay bathhouse located in the basement of a hotel) right through to her record-breaking, Tony-winning turn as Dolly Levi in Broadway's 'Hello Dolly!': 'Bette: Bathhouse To Broadway' explores Midler's music, movies, and iconic concert performances. Incorporating songs, stories, and comedy, Bette is joined by her longtime Fr-enemy and accompanist, Barry Meniblow, on the piano, to help bring her story to life. All songs are sung live and will include some of Midler's biggest hits and standards, including 'Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy', 'Friends', 'The Rose', and of course, 'Wind Beneath My Wings’.
