Double the fun

The Edwards Twins to appear in Canton

Cher, Elton John, Dolly Parton, Barbra Streisand, and several other celebrities will appear in a one-night show in Canton tomorrow when The Edwards Twins present their celebrity tribute concert at the Village Theater at Cherry Hill.

Anthony and Eddie Edwards use state-of-the-art make-up to look and sound like the superstars of today and yesterday. Favorite legendary superstars come alive in this special performance. USA Today said, “The best you will ever see.” Celine Dion praised, “I am their number one fan.” NBC Today Show called them, “Extraordinary.” Michael Douglas enthused, “These guys are the real deal.” Carol Burnett raved, “The best I have ever seen.” The Boston Globe called them “A must-see show!” 

The Edwards Twins, who were featured on Netflix series, “The Kominski Method” with Michael Douglas, will be presenting a night of 100 stars featuring Sonny and Cher, Billy Joel, Elton John, Neil Diamond, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, Rod Stewart, Bette Midler, Olivia Newton John, Barbra Streisand, Andrea Bocelli, Frankie Valli, Tom Jones, and many, many more. 

“My identical twin brother and I were born and raised in Burbank, California and were fascinated with celebrities at a very early age. Living near the famous NBC TV studios in Burbank, we would sneak in and watch various TV shows being taped,” Anthony Edwards said. “Back then we would play together mimicking the stars and now we get to entertain audiences around the globe with our master vocals and illusionist make-up.” 

When the Edwards brothers are onstage, they move, sing, and perform like the actual stars, and each of their impersonations is done to perfection, according to critics.  After watching a performance, a senior editor at PEOPLE Magazine was moved to write “They bring such love and attention to recreating celebrities, that in many ways they are better than watching the real thing.”

Tickets are still available for the show set to begin at 7 p.m. on stage at The Village Theater at Cherry Hill, located at 50400 Cherry Hill Road. Tickets are priced at $30-$50 and are available online at www.cantonvillagetheater.org or by calling (734) 394-5300.
