KATE Bush fans who missed out on tickets for her Hammersmith Apollo live shows can watch a mesmerising tribute performance.

Dreaming of Kate will take place at the Civic Theatre next month, featuring musician Maaike Breijman in the role of the famous singer.

With a remarkable resemblance to Kate Bush in vocal style and appearance, Maaike Breijman is bringing the music of Kate Bush to live stages all over Europe as part of the show’s tour.

Maaike, a Dutch professional singer and dancer, created the show with a Liverpool-based band in 2011 and sings, dances and plays the piano during the show.

She said: “The concept of the show can be a bit confusing. People expect us to be a regular band since we areaband. But with all the costume changes, dance routines and props, we are more than that.

“On the other hand, we are not performing a musical or any particular story, which is what people expect when you say ‘costumes’ and ‘stage props’.

“We aim to perform, well…a fantasy, a dream.”

The show hits the stage at the Civic Theatre on Saturday, September 19, at 7.45pm.

Tickets are now available, priced at £19 and £17 for concessions.
