A live stage show celebrating the music of Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, with hits like 'Jolene' and 'Islands in the Stream'.
Islands In The Stream comes to The Fire Station on Sunday 7 February 2027, starting at 7.30pm. It's a live stage show built around the music of country legends Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, billed as a tribute to the 'Queen and King of country'.
The whole thing is built on the contrast between the two: Parton's warmth, glamour and personality set against Rogers' charm, charisma and energy. It's a production that leans on vocals and musicianship to work through a songbook packed with some of country music's most loved anthems, and it's been seen on Sky TV.
The setlist pulls from both their solo careers and the songs they recorded together. From Dolly, you'll hear Jolene, 9 to 5 and I Will Always Love You. From Kenny, Here You Come Again, Ruby, Lucille, The Gambler and Coward of the County. And then there's the title track, Islands in the Stream, the duet that brings the two halves together.
