Kelly O'Brien, the UK's Dolly Parton tribute act, brings her two-hour show of Dolly's hits to the Albany Theatre.
The Dolly Show comes to The Albany Theatre on Friday 28 May 2027, with Kelly O'Brien taking the stage. It's a theatrical concert experience rather than a standard tribute act, and it's backed by a live band. The set runs through Dolly Parton's musical legacy from the 1960s to the present, so you'll hear the early country songs alongside the later crossover hits. Among them are Jolene, 9 to 5, Islands in the Stream, Coat of Many Colours, Here You Come Again and I Will Always Love You.
O'Brien has spent more than three decades on this. She's worked as Dolly's body double and was the only UK finalist in the official global casting search for the new Dolly Parton Broadway musical. The Parton family has endorsed her work, and she's billed as the world's number one Dolly Parton tribute.
