      No one remembers mousey old Sue, the undertaker from Bingley Bridge. No one knows she’s a Diva fanatic, until one day she is offered a cabaret spot at Harry’s Place.

      Overnight, Tammy Frascati is born and Sue finds herself hurtling to stardom and Las Vegas, signing the songs of her favourite Divas - Billie Holiday, Dusty Springfield, Ella Fitzgerald and Gloria Gaynor. But as success beckons Tammy, a handsome stranger pierces Sue’s heart. What does she do? Can she have both?

      Caroline Parker gives a virtuoso performance as Sue and her alter ego Tammy as she takes us on a journey of fame, frocks and false eyelashes battling with true love from Bingley Bridge.
