Fans ‘Cher’ A Good Time On The Scene At Speakeasy
A packed house all ‘Chered’ a good time at the Rock Island Speakeasy on Jan. 14 as Viva Las Divas took the stage with a special headliner — “Cher” impersonator Miss Candi Stratton. Stratton is a former Miss All American Goddess (National Title) and has performed across the county.
Stratton did a fantastic job emulating her stylistic and musical hero, not just lip synching to Cher’s hits, but also perfectly capturing her stage moves and personality and, of course, her various looks in segments throughout the show.
Fans were thrilled at the performances of Stratton and the other drag queens.
“It’s a fabulous show,” said George LeGrand of Moline. “She just does a wonderful job.”
“We’re having so much fun, this is awesome,” said Brittney Sanders of Rock Island. “We’re here for a birthday party and this is just so much fun.”
“We were thrilled to have Candi on The Speakeasy stage this month” said Brett Hitchcock, Director of Audience Development. “It’s another example of the quality of performers that we have as part of this show month in and month out. It really is the premiere drag show in the area!”
The next Viva Las Divas show is Feb. 3.
