Rufus Does Judy is a recreation of Judy Garland’s infamous 1961 comeback concert. The show features over 25 classic songs, some of the greatest songs of the last century including "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", "Almost Like Being In Love", "The Man Who Got Away", "A Foggy Day" and "Zing Went The Strings of My Heart". For what will be his tenth show at Royal Albert Hall, Rufus Wainwright will be backed by a full orchestra under the direction of Stephen Oremus.
“"Within the Royal Albert Hall I’ve communed, been given strength and ultimately bidden farewell to my most turbulent artistic emotions, fondly feeling them evaporate into that amazing dome,” Rufus Wainwright said. “It’s my favorite venue in the world and I can’t wait to “do it again” for the last time. Maybe we'll stay all night!"
