Doris to have her day in Portarlington

Country music star Melinda Schneider will channel the best of the legendary Doris Day during a tribute show at the Portarlington Neighbourhood House.

The Melinda Does Doris Show arrives at Port on Saturday February 17 and will showcase timeless classics, “Sentimental Journey”, “Que Sera, Sera”, “Everybody Loves a Lover”, and an array of hits from Calamity Jane, Love me or Leave Me, and The Pajama Game.

Ms Schneider whose career includes six Golden Guitars and a stint on Dancing with the Stars, said she was looking forward to playing homage to one of her favourite musical heroes.

“She (Doris) was such a huge talent, a triple threat as they say – she could sing, dance and act. I thought then she was the best of everything a woman could be and wanted to grow up and be just like her,” Ms Schneider said.

“I’m really excited to be able to bring this wonderful music to Portarlington.”
