A hilarious, poignant, multi-media cabaret show.Tracing the steps of the early 80’s New Romantic pop star, LaLa Shockette -(the alter ego of Lowri-Ann Richards)- from her humble, Welsh dairy farm beginnings to Top of the Pops, appearances at Wembley & iconic stardom. Beautifully sung songs by artists as diverse as John Cale, David Bowie, Kate Bush & Gary Numan- with anecdotes, some very tall stories & all ‘backed up’ with back projected original photographs & live video footage.
Paul Griffiths gave the show 5* when he reviewed the show in Edinburgh 2014 & said, “If Edinburgh is all about your star rating, ‘Whatever Happened to LaLa Shockette?’ has the ability to dazzle, not only by the brilliance of Lowri-Ann Richards comic routine, but also by the abundance of well known 80’s pop icons, she’s bumped into over the years….A star filled brilliant cabaret”

“If ever there was an appropriate time to say- ‘I’ll have what she’s drinking’- it would be after watching the mini tornado that is Lowri-Ann Richards perform! – A siren of Cabaret” Broadway Baby, Edinburgh Fringe 2014. As a London Cabaret award nominee
in 2015, Lowri-Ann possesses a stellar and extensive career in performing live. This ensures that the evening’s repertoire of material is exquisitely diverse and ranges from songs by David Bowie to Judy Garland (Lowri-Ann’s late father in law, Jock Jacobsen, produced all of Garland’s London West End shows during the 60’s) Kate Bush to the Beatles (she appeared in Give My Regards to Broadstreet alongside both Paul and Ringo very early on in her career) Bessie Smith to Visage (L-A toured
and sang with Steve Strange’s Visage in the early New Romantic 80’s and more recently in 2015/16)- all of which helps to ensure that anecdotes throughout the evening are aplenty! Combine this with the spectacular playing of internationally renowned
harpist Dylan Cernyw, you have a stellar, dynamic and a hugely entertaining ‘cross-over’ act that is second to none.
