How did Lisa get into this work?

Lisa actually swapped a career in the DWP for the showbiz life after she kept getting stopped in the street about her striking resemblance to Celine Dion.

She explained: “I have always performed as a vocalist but kept my work going at the DWP, however, following a relationship break up I took time out and reinvented myself. I have always loved the music of Celine and her lyrics have a personal resonance to my own relationship hurts and pain but I transformed that through the performance and new career. I found myself & my confidences again through her work and decided not to wallow and it was actually through her powerful lyrics I picked myself up and said enough!

“Also because so many people used to stop me in shops and out and about saying I looked like her, I decided one day to try and do the ultimate make over. I hired a professional make up artiste for the transformation and rehearsed the songs and after some live performances I began to work closely with Viva Entertainments and together with the live band, violinists & solo male vocalist we have created & produced something very special with this new show.

“I have found love again and met my new husband and have two beautiful boys and two step daughters so my family is everything to me. I am so happy to be able to share the joy of Celine with you all in Blackpool! “
