Divine Miss Bette Returns To Griffith

A decade since her last appearance, cabaret sensation Catherine Alcorn is set to return to Griffith Regional Theatre on Saturday, 14 March 2026, bringing her acclaimed show The Divine Miss Bette to local audiences.

Ms Alcorn has taken this show all around the world, receiving standing ovations and rave reviews from New York to the Opera House.

Theatre Manager, Marg Andreazza, said "We are so excited to welcome Cath back to our stage. This spectacular show celebrates the songs and spirit of the divine Bette Midler and you will hear all her big hits, as well as hear lots of great stories from her life – it's a bawdy, brash and rapturous experience, and Catherine really embodies her spirit. It's got story-telling, lots of laughs, an amazing band and powerful ballads and is a really fantastic show. We loved it last time it was here and I can only imagine it's got bigger and better,"

This show has been hailed by critics as "absolutely hilarious" and "masterful" and "with a voice to die for", Alcorn is renowned as a jewel in the crown of Australian Theatre.

Ms Alcorn was trained by Steve Ostrow, the man who discovered Midler, for this show which takes the audience on a thrilling ride back to the Palace Theatre, New York in 1973 when she belts out the diva's early classics including Friends, In the Mood, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, The Rose & more.

Theatre Members are invited to attend the first preshow function of the year, which can be booked through the Box Office before 7 March.

"If you haven't taken out your 2026 Membership yet, now is the time, so you can come along to the preshow function before this wonderful show," Ms Andreazza said,
