Parker s deliciously eerie similarities to the Divine Miss M. have resulted in engagements lasting from weeks to years, taking her from Las Vegas to cities and countries all over the globe and is currently the #1 Bette Midler impersonator in the world. Parker says. Our voices are alike and I try to portray her with the same energy and humor that Bette displays on stage, she reaches out and grabs you. With Veterans Day approaching, you won t want to miss her sassy rendition of Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy as she pays tribute to our men and women in uniform. You ll also hear more Bette essentials such as Wind Beneath My Wings, The Rose, Do You Want To Dance, From a Distance, and Big Noise From Winnetka. Join us for a truly remarkable Midler experience.
