A NEW INTERNATIONAL PRODUCTION IN TOWN?
RUMOUR HAS IT -
ADELE’S LIFE AND SONGS
KUALA
LUMPUR, September 2016 — Milestone Production is bringing an award winning
international performance celebrating the life and songs of British singer,
Adele, exclusively to Malaysia this 21st
– 25th September 2016 at Pentas
1 , Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (klpac). Start warming up your
vocal chords so you can sing along to Adele’s chart-topping hits such as ‘Someone Like You’ and ‘Rolling in the Deep’ together
with like minded Adele fans as this award-winning international production of Rumour Has It – Adele’s
Life And Songs revisits this illustrious songstress’ meteoric rise to
fame.
Hailing
from a working class family from Tottenham, Adele Adkins had a big voice and
even larger dreams. While there was no musical heritage in her family, a
passion for singing and music led her to pursue her studies in the BRIT School
for Performing Arts and Technology, where it was said she was a classmate of
her peers, Jessie J and Leona Lewis. After she posted a demo
from a class project on her MySpace account, little did she imagine that her
life would change forever. XL Recordings launched her into stardom, as she is
about to enter her twenties with the album, 19. Since then, she has released
hits after hits from a mega-platinum catalogue of songs such as Set Fire to the Rain and the
award-winning Skyfall.
But the magic of
Adele’s appeal to the masses goes beyond her powerful vocals and soulful
lyrics.
Those
who have seen her live concert, especially the one at Royal Albert Hall, knows
that she is a masterful storyteller—witty, expressive and above all, open to
bare her heart and soul to connect with her audience. Unabashed to admit that a
‘rubbish relationship’ was what that inspired her successful sophomore album
21, Adele’s life story is the real inspiration behind Rumour Has It.
Debuting
at Brisbane in 2013, Rumour Has It – Adele’s Life And Songs has
toured more than a dozen of major cities in Australia, sweeping 3 international
award in its wake namely Best Musical/Cabaret Matilda Award, Best Musical
Production Groundling Award and Sunday Mail Top Two Show 2013, Critic’s
Choice. This contemporary performance has earned critical reviews as a whole
for its humour, musical prowess and the thoughtful and poignant celebration of
a woman who is not afraid to expose her deepest emotions to the world.
Above
all, praise is heaped upon Rumour Has It’s main cast, the spectacular Naomi Price also known as the leading
lady of Ricky Martin. Having carved a name for herself in Australia for her
appearance in the fourth season of The Voice, Naomi has also provided
vocals for artists and performed as a soloist with music theatre composer Scott
Alan. She has prior experience onstage and offstage, having produced, managed
and directed a myriad of theatre projects prior to achieving fame through The
Voice and then Rumour Has It.
Through
a body suit, wigs and the use of black-lace dresses and other costumes, Price
is transformed physically to Adele’s iconic look. Appearance aside, when it
comes to her musical chops, Price delivers.
She
has received praise for her world-class vocals uncanny to the British
songstress she is emulating. Critics and Adele fans alike have also commented
upon her impeccable comic timing, ability to control band and audience as well
as her arresting stage presence.
So
start practicing your favourite Adele’s sensational hits so when Rumour Has
It arrives at our shores from 21st to 25th September
at klpac, be ready to let your inner diva shine together!.
