The Former Ladies of the Supremes - Sydney Show Announced

Filed under: Tours, General — site admin @ 11:04 am

Entertainment Depot proudly Announces

The Former Ladies of the Supremes Sydney Show

at the Capitol Theatre, Sydney 23rd September 2006.

Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of The Former Ladies of The Supremes

The Former Ladies of The Supremes feature two genuine members of the Motown signed and recorded Supremes, Scherrie Payne and Lynda Laurence. The third member of their group is Freddi Poole.

The history is there, the songs are there, and the talent is there.
The group today is a continued part of The Supremes legacy and they are here to stay!

Since their formation in 1986 they have acquired an impressive biography with new recordings and sold out performances all over the world.

Scherrie and Lynda’s trio have performed alongside a host of other legendary Motown acts including The Temptations, The Four Tops, and Martha Reeves and The Vandellas. The Ladies have also toured extensively with James Brown, The Three Degrees and Sister Sledge.

In the summer of 2000 Scherrie Payne and Lynda Laurence had the honor of uniting with the Supreme Diva, Miss Diana Ross, for the Diana Ross and The Supremes “Return To Love” Tour.
In the Fall of 2005, The Former Ladies of The Supremes were honored by The Hollywood History Museum with an exhibit showcasing their contribution to The Supremes Legacy.

Tickets go on sale July 2006.
