SHE was a true national treasure and gave people a lorra, lorra fun over the decades.

Cilla Black was a household name after a career that gave her 11 top ten hits and saw her host top TV shows such as Surprise, Surprise and Blind Date.

Now Vicky Jays' tribute to the late, great Cilla and the Sixties is heading to Clacton.

The show stars the stunning 'Liverbird' as Cilla, performing number one hits such as You’re My World and Anyone Who Has A Heart, which was the UK's biggest selling single by a female artist in the 1960s.

She is joined on stage by the gorgeous Shades trio who take a fresh new look at the iconic 60s era which changed the face of music.

Clacton and Frinton Gazette:

  • The Shades trio on stage tonight 

It provides an unforgetable decade of timeless classic hits, such as I Only Want To Be With You, Walk On By, Shout and Downtown.

A Tribute to Cilla and the Shades of the Sixties is at the West Cliff Theatre tonight at 7.30pm. Tickets are £18 (£16 over-60s) from the box office on 01255 433344.
