Forever Patsy
Tribute to Patsy Cline
FOREVER PATSY - not just an enviable sentiment, but also the title of
one of the best tribute shows around, starring Rossana. But, you ask,
who is Rossana?
Rossana has come a long way since she was first discovered at the age
of 10 in her home province, New Brunswick. Prior to that, she had attended
one of England's most prestigious stage schools, The Italia Conti in London,
where she diligently applied herself to the mysteries of ballet, tap,
jazz dance and acting, but it was her incredible voice that won out in
the long run.
Following a breakthrough performance at the National Atlantic Exhibition,
her family was approached by an established country star and her management,
seeking to take the youngster on the road. Rossana's parents, wisely,
decided that she had to finish her education before the bright lights
drew her away.
Instead, she stayed at home in Saint John, doing the occasional television
show and continuing to learn the three R's while expanding on her earlier
education in the performing arts. Then, about 4 years ago, Rossana discovered
the music and personality of Patsy Cline. At first, she would do Patsy
only occasionally, and mostly for family and friends, but it led, quickly
enough, to an invitation to appear as part of the Las Vegas Legends tour
followed soon after by a similar turn with the Ultimate Tribute Cabaret
Show.
