Puppy Love
About the Show
The Donny Osmond tribute show is called Puppy Love and is a collection of fantastic songs from the 60’s through to recent times that Donny has performed or recording throughout his career spanning over 40 years. From a tender age performing becoming a child superstar, mega teen pop star and television show host in the 1970’s, Donny went through a lean period in the 80’s. But just when he thought his career was all over… bang… he bounced back in the lead role of Andrew Lloyd Webbers musical Joseph and he became even bigger than before. For those who loved the music of both the early years and the current era and to all Donny fans out there this show is for you.
Formats of the Show
The show can be performed in many different ways to suit the venue or occasion. It is adaptable for Theatres, Hotels, Cabaret, Corporate Events, Charity Events and much more besides. The show can be performed by Jason Paul Ryan with a live four piece Band for maximum effect or performed to backing tracks for smaller venues. Sharon Molloy joins Jason onstage to sing the Donny and Marie songs. Ailish Carpenter and Jon Clarke play supporting roles and Fran Wilkinson is the Sound and Lighting Techician for the show.
Theatre Tour
The show had its first Theatre Tour in the Spring of 2008 starting at Kilkenny’s Watergate Theatre. In each venue that the show was performed two local boys sang the roles of Young Donny and Little Jimmy Osmond. Venues on the first tour included Carlow, Monaghan, Naas, Galway and Omagh.
