Singing Impressionist Dave LaFame - Speaking from a corporate entertainers perspective
Monday Evening December 14, 2009
6:30 to 9:15 P.M.
David La Thangue
Dave La Fame aka David La Thangue
Dave's entertainment career began in London, England over 30 years ago. In 1981 looking for a way to " keep himself out of trouble" a friend persuaded him to audition for a London stage production of the musical Grease. Considering it a bit of a joke and expecting to be thrown out he auditioned anyway to keep his friend happy. To his absolute shock he landed the 2nd leading male role in the show: "Kenicke"! Based on a dare he found his vocation.
In 2000, he pursued corporate entertaining seriously. He has a one man show that features comedic impersonations of music's biggest stars. He can impersonate over 200 personalities! He performs as a serious Tom Jones impersonator. Today Dave La Fame is considered one of the top five Tom Jones impersonators internationally.
He performs these shows in theatre's, casinos, cruise lines and the corporate market all across Canada, the United States, India and around the globe.
