Barbra Streisand: third date added
|
After a lightening quick sell out of Barbra Streisand’s first two London engagements at The O2 arena, a third show on July 25th has been added due to overwhelming demand. The concerts at The O2 arena will be her first in the UK since 1994. The European tour, which her many fans have been eagerly anticipating for years, also visits Austria, France, Ireland and Italy and follows her record-breaking North American tour last autumn. More tour dates in additional countries will be announced shortly. A 58 piece orchestra will accompany Ms Streisand as she performs many of the classic songs from her unique repertoire such as “Evergreen”, “People”, “The Way We Were”, “Don’t Rain on My Parade” and many more. Martin Erlichman, Streisand’s longtime manager announced the tour, and confirmed that the recent US tour, her first in six years, had broken box office records in a staggering 14 of the 16 venues she played. She already held, and still holds, the record in the remaining 2 venues. Designated proceeds from the tour will support her various philanthropic initiatives and will be distributed through The Streisand Foundation.
