Overview

Essentially Cher – Live Cher Tribute Act

Do you believe in life after love? You will after seeing Essentially Cher. Starring Trisha McCluney, known to TV audiences from BBC One's I Can See Your Voice, this is one of the fastest-rising live Cher tribute shows around.

Since bursting onto the entertainment scene in 2019, Trisha has taken her show across the UK, into Europe and now around the world.
