CCAA features ‘A Tribute to Whitney Houston’

The Coffee County Arts Alliance will present “The Greatest Love Of All: A Tribute to Whitney Houston” starring Belinda Davids on Thursday, Feb. 17, at 7 p.m. in the Enterprise High School Performing Arts Center. The critically-acclaimed live concert honors the talent, music and memory of Whitney Houston.

Featuring the breathtaking vocals of Davids accompanied by a fabulous six-piece band and dancers, this is a beautifully crafted tribute to one of the world’s most revered singers. The two-hour production will fill you with joy, nostalgia and wonderment as you are taken on a heartfelt musical journey through Whitney’s greatest hits including “I Will Always Love You,” “I Wanna Dance With Somebody,” “How Will I Know,” “One Moment in Time,” “I Have Nothing,” “Run to You,” “Didn’t We Almost Have It All,” “Greatest Love of All,” “I’m Every Woman,” “Exhale (Shoop Shoop)” and more.

The accomplished South African songstress’ performance is the culmination of a life-long connection with the superstar to whom she pays homage.

Davids, beat almost 15,000 other hopefuls to take on the role and it was her own eternal love of Whitney that prepared her for the show. Exposed mainly to R&B and gospel as a child, Davids was innately drawn to Houston’s musical style. Singing professionally from her early teens, Houston’s songs became a fixture in Davids’ live shows. “I think I’ve sung at least one Whitney track in almost every live show I’ve ever performed,” says Davids.

Advance tickets are on sale now for $45 each and can be purchased at Red Brick Pizza and The Olive Fruit in Enterprise, AR Workshop in Dothan or online at CoffeeCountyArtsAlliance.com
