We are delighted to be bringing an amateur production of Call Me Dusty to the Victoria Hall in Saltaire on Saturday 22nd February, as part of its 2025 tour. In 2022 and 2023, this production toured 12 venues across Yorkshire and all were sell-outs.
Dusty Springfield was without doubt the finest white soul singer of her era; for millions she was the definitive pop diva. Her lifestyle was the stuff of legend – and great drama. With her relentless quest for perfection and refusal to compromise, Dusty Springfield led a tortured life. Her stage persona – extravagant black mascara and back combed hair – was at odds with the quiet, shy convent girl, Mary O’Brien and her sexuality. The result was a downward spiral of drugs, alcohol-abuse and self-harm but despite all that she produced tremendous music, which still ranks as some of the finest of its kind.
