If you can't see Dolly Parton herself, the next best thing is Kelly O'Brien—widely recognized as the world's most authentic and accomplished Dolly Parton tribute artist. Endorsed by the Parton family, Kelly is trusted by Dolly Parton Enterprises themselves, having been chosen as Dolly's official body double for film. She was also the only UK finalist in #SearchForDolly, the worldwide casting search for Dolly's Broadway musical.
With a pitch-perfect Tennessee accent, a soaring soprano voice, and the warmth and sparkle that made Dolly a global icon, she captures not just the look, but the heart and soul of the Queen of Country. Audiences leave her shows feeling uplifted, moved, and utterly convinced they've been in the presence of Dolly herself.
An award-winning performer with over two decades on stage, Kelly's career began in South Australia, where she won national competitions and appeared on New Faces and Popstars. Her big break came starring in Germany's Starlight Express, launching an international career in television, musical theatre, and live music. Today, she tours the globe with The Dolly Show—a dazzling, full-scale theatrical concert with a live band, featuring all of Dolly's greatest hits from the 1960s to today, including Jolene, 9 to 5, Islands in the Stream, and I Will Always Love You. Expect powerhouse vocals, laugh-out-loud comedy, rhinestone-studded glamour, and Dolly's signature warmth in every note.
