"Love Finds Judy Garland"
vocalist Joan Ellison,
with pianist Jason Aquila and cellist Nora Willauer
Songstress Joan Ellison celebrates Judy Garland’s centennial with a trolley ride through her life, from her swing-singing days at MGM to her take-no- prisoners sold-out concerts around the globe. It's a highly personal love letter to the genius of Judy Garland and her path to true love, including The Trolley Song, Over the Rainbow, Just in Time, If Love Were All, The Boy Next Door, I Got Rhythm, By Myself, The Man That Got Away, The Palace Medley, and Get Happy.
Joan Ellison has been described by Cabaret Scenes Magazine as “Judy-esque in appearance and...a near voice double for her idol.” As the restorer of Garland’s original orchestral arrangements with Michael Feinstein for the Judy Garland Heirs Trust, she brings musical authenticity and a life-long love for Judy to the stage.
