Reviews

Tina Turner Tribute Artist, Luisa Marshall, posed outside Oprah Winfrey’s studio after performing on stage and impressing Ms. Tina Turner herself.

 

” I would like to congratulate you for such a wonderful performance you did on stage at the Oprah Winfrey Show….it was great seeing Tina’s expression on her face watching you perform to “Simply The Best!”… Tina was amazed!!!… she asked several people who is that performing… Luisa, it’s an honor to call you a friend… something I will always treasure… What a treat for you & I performing on the same stage as Tina on the # 1 talk show Oprah Winfrey Show…Best wishes to you…. You’re Simply the Best!!!”

“..I had to stop and think for a second that that is NOT really Tina performing. I have seen MANY people impersonate Tina Turner, but the video was enough to put me in MAJOR shock. I actually got to perform with Tina Turner on her last tour, 24/7. It’s a long story how it happened, but seeing the dancers on the video and getting all the moves is AMAZING!…”

Donovan Clay

(Donovan Clay had seen Tina Turner live in 25 concerts in a row in different cities. He eventually got noticed and called on stage by Ms. Turner herself. To read about Donovan’s Tina Turner experience click here.)

“Having Luisa Marshall come to our fundraiser really made the event a huge success! Her dynamic voice and electric presence lit up the room and got the crowd dancing with energy and clapping with enthusiasm. Her songs fit in perfectly with our theme and everyone enjoyed her vibrant talent.”

Hi Luisa & Steve,

I just wanted to thank you soooo much for coming to Strut this year! You did a great job, getting the crowd dancing and having fun! I really appreciate your help and your positive attitude is very refreshing. You are a pleasure to work with.

It was so nice to meet you both! I just couldn’t resist getting up on stage dancing with my co-workers… ; )

Thanks again, you rock! : )

“…we tried so hard to get Tina Turner on my show, you have no bloody idea how hard we tried to get her….we could have had that wonderful woman (Luisa Marshall) and we could have faked the whole bloody thing. They would have never known the difference…”

“Luisa brought energy to the auction. Our guests were clapping and cheering from the moment she stepped in the room. The “Simply the Best” auction took off the minute she started and when it was over, the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue was the winner! We raised over $400,000. My only problem now is, how to top that next year? Many thanks to Luisa. You are “Simply the Best”! ”

Hello Steve & Luisa,

WOW – we are SO thrilled with last night’s event and so thrilled with Luisa’s performance! Luisa – you truly put on a great show. I have been doing this event for six years and I have never seen our guests on their feet and dancing! Thank you so much to both of you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to be a part of the Big Sisters Divas Gala – our guests can’t stop talking about how great it was to have “Tina” in our midst! We raised a record $165,000 for our mentoring programs and services last night, so we are all so happy with how the event turned out as many young girls will benefit as a result. I wish you all the best all you continue to our around the continent and I hope we have the occasion to meet again in the near future.

Sincerely,

“Luisa, you were definitely the hit of our fabulous event last Thursday evening! You will see from the photos mentioned below you had the entire crowd rockin’. What a smashing finale to a dynamic evening! We loved you… your energy… your talent… your generosity of spirit in pulling the two guests onto the stage with you…. your fabulous voice and… those legs! My soon-to-be son-in-law was so jealous that the “more mature” men were on stage with you! You gave our guest a memorable send off at the close of the evening and they are clamoring to come back to another UNICEF function… an events planner dream. Many guests have asked how to get in touch with you. Thank you for contributing so much to help educate some of the world’s most vulnerable kids…..”

Hi Steve & Luisa…thank you so much for making our gala last Saturday a resounding success! Thank you also for asking your friends, Retrospect, to sing a few songs – they were a hit! Everyone can’t stop talking about you – you really, really made our evening memorable. I hope our paths cross again!

“…It was a great evening at the Hilton Vancouver Airport celebrating the “Hilton Connie Award” which recognized the hotel as the best in the Hilton system. The conclusion of the evening with “All Hail the Queen”(Luisa Marshall) was simply superb. Luisa’s energy level, enthusiasm, and portrayal of this great performer was well beyond our expectations. Going forward, the “Tiny Tina Show” will be highly recommended by Hilton Hotels Corporation. Extremely well done. All the Best!”

Dear Luisa,

Your performance at the Weekend to End Breast Cancer fundraiser was awesome. The public was ecstatic as you performed your magic. I cannot recall any of our past events where an artist captured the audience with such power and delight. Your tribute to Tina Turner was superb as only a great singer such as yourself could deliver.

Thank you for donating your time and talent to this great cause… your help is greatly appreciated.

On behalf of the Cancer Foundation I want to extend my heart-felt appreciation for making this evening unforgettable.

“Luisa, you are a charming lady who by your exceptional songs, your smile, and the voice of “Tina” it has been a great… great moment of the show.

It is always great when the members talk about a party or function for days (and days) afterwards. You have an amazing talent and presence which really lit up the party.

Dear Luisa

Wow! You, your dancers and band are great. Your recent performance for our company was very well received. Your music was entertaining but your personal effor to connect with the audience was superb. I received many compliments on the performance and folks felt like you were the real “Tina Turner” when you were on stage right down to the dance and head motions.

Luisa, not only was the performance great, but it was a pleasure to work with your crew. From set up to break down professionalism reigned. I am sure you know that talent, especially music talent can be a challenge to work with. You and your staff conducted all of your activity in a cooperativeessional manner. Your set up guys were cooperative with both my staff and the hotel staff. We were both pleased and impressed

I can say without question we received our money’s worth. The entertainment was a good dollar value and I will gladly recommend you to others.

I hope your musical tour in Alberta, Florida and Amsterdam go well. Our thoughts and prayers go with you for safe travels. Again Accept our many thanks for the memories you created for our group

“Hi Luisa, thank-you again for a wonderful show and for the opportunity to actually meet you! It was a real thrill to meet an entertainer of your calibre, you have a great sense of people and business. The “Big Night-Out Band” was great, the dancers superb and you’ve all worked very hard to make your review a resounding success.

I wish for you all continuing happiness and good fortune, and I hope we get another chance to enjoy your show one day soon.

Good luck Luisa and company!”

“We used Luisa Marshall and Big Night Out for our annual employee Christmas Dinner and Dance. At these events the wrong band can cause early departures, empty dance floors and a general lack of a “special night feeling”…….. Happily that was not the case for us this year. The Tina Turner show provides an excellent transition from dinner to dancing as the show is as much worth watching as dancing to, it breaks the ice and sets the mood. The following dance set fills the dance floor and the two dancers on stage add a real sparkle to the show. The very long sets also enhance the attendance as band break times tend to be points where people leave. They are great value and transform what can be a stuffy short social evening into a lot of fun for the full age range found in your typical corporate office.”

The 10th annual fundraising event for the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, Ik Shandar Shaam on Friday May 5th was a tremendous success.

It was a glorious evening filled with lots of fun, great food, dancing and a real showcase of local entertainment . “Tina Turner” was a great hit with the approximately 650 attendees. You totally had the crowd on their feet and engaged. I’m pleased you took it easy on the “volunteer background dancers”, of which I was one. I had a wonderful time and can really appreciate the high energy you need to put on your show .

Pauline and I hope you had an enjoyable time too. The entrance was very nice with the RCMP escort. We want to thank you for your support. I will have the BC Children’s Hospital send an letter of thanks too, and when the photo’s are ready will send you copies.

I don’t have a total of the funds raised yet, FYI The cheque presentation will be between noon and 1pm on Sunday June 4th on the Children’s Miracle Weekend on Global TV.

Once again thank you for helping make this evening truly special and success for the BC Children’s Hospital.

Best wishes

The tour de force performance of Luisa Marshall’s “Tina – A Rock ‘N Roll Journey” was a night to remember, for all. The amazing production was so richly textured and vastly entertaining. A very vibrant energy was pervasive throughout the entire event, from the pre-show buzz to the photo-op after the show.

The production value is second to none , with impeccable attention being evident at all levels, from the effective use of multimedia, lighting affects, costuming, and choreography, etc.

Now lets get to the very core of this magical night, the talent on stage. The depth of talent has to be seen to be appreciated, because there is a genuine passion and joy in all the performers. Luisa’s performance encapsulates the phenomenon of Tina so well that only one word seems to fit – authentic. With the uncanny look, vocals, style, and vitality of Tina, Luisa is in her own right, phenomenal.

Now add to the mix her amazing supporting cast and crew and what we have here is an unforgettable event. The eight dancers, are such a treat for the senses. Obviously all are deeply talented, but it’s their impressive energy and passion during the performances that added the very dynamic and dramatic dimension to the show. The accompanying band of five very talented musicians; lead guitar, bass guitar, sax, keyboards and drums, provided the sight and sound dimension.

The lighting effects and multimedia projection which did so much to set the mood and tone throughout the full two hour performance was wonderfully engineered by none other than Steve Marshall.

Finally ,there was still another component to the magic of that night, the audience. Like Tina, Luisa also reaches out to the audience and the appreciative crowd returns the favor. I had a unique position of being able to be wherever as the photographer, so I got close and personal, from all perspectives. I could see, feel, hear the joy from the audience; its in their eyes, smiles, and thunderous applause after each number and even at the beginning of some. I could also observe the same joy and gratitude on all the performers in response. It was a very positive and joyous experience and to borrow from a song title, “Simply The Best”.

1) I wanted to pass along my sentiments again in regards to the show in Campbell River Saturday night… it knocked my darn socks off!!! I’ve lived in Campbell River for 8 years…and have attended (and performed in) many shows over the years at the Tidemark. I’ve seen several big name entertainers there, and a couple of high quality tribute shows (including ABBA-mania) and I’ve never witnessed a show like Luisa’s, or such an audience response! Thanks again to the whole gang for putting on an amazing performance that a lot of us are still talking about (in fact, I’m about to mention it on the air in 2 minutes…on The Eagle 97.3 FM…plugging your December show in Courtenay too)!

2) I was hoping to get an e-mail copy of the photos you took of myself (the guy with spikey hair in the leather jacket), my wife, and Cheryl (who interviewed Luisa for CRTV earlier in the day). You can zap ’em to this address!

Thanks in advance,

And then you give me the mike so I can sing a line ,oh wowwwwwww. And then you sing Simply the Best which is my favourite song . And I get to sing the line on the mic of Simply The besttttttttt. I still cant believe it. You are were so fantastic. Great singing, great dancing and you loved us as an audience. Oh such great singing. Best show I have ever seen indeed. Im so glad you all signed my picture and it will be treasured for sure and if you ever come to williams lake again ,you can bet we will be there again and in the front row too,cause I will runnnnnnnnnnn to get there lol.

I will at the stairs to your left if that is any help. But, Im sure you dont remember as is understandable ,but, thought I would try . I have kept you long enough, so do take care and God Bless You All.

Love Linda

 

Steve:

I’m sorry we never got a chance to meet at the ACT on Friday. I was there with some guests – people from 10 years old to 60 – and everyone had a great time! Your lovely wife is a dead ringer for Tina from where I was sitting, and she certainly won the crowd over with her sincere portrayal………… I just received an email from a contest winner thanking me for her tickets. That doesn’t happen very often, and as I said , everyone who came as my guest truly enjoyed every minute of the show.

Good luck with future shows

Jim Coulter, Publisher – The Maple Ridge News

 

Luisa is amazing as Luisa!! How do you keep up with her energy? Thanks again. I am still being bombarded with rave reviews. Several people opted out of the party this year because the bands have not been so good since you last performed for us. These people are very upset this morning when they have been hearing how great it was.

Hi Luisa

What a great show you put on this evening in Vernon – so much energy, fun and great choreography. I am sure the dancers, the band and yourself deserve a holiday after performing since January. I remember watching Tina on TV when she sang with Ike. Your resemblance to Tina is spot on. I also remember when the Rolling Stones were Tina’s warm-up band when The Stones first visited the US.

If you haven’t toured in Alberta, the Calgarians would love your show.

Keep on rocking Luisa,

Pamela

 

Hi Luisa and Steve.

Most of the School District #36 (Surrey) purchasing department was in the front row of last night’s performance as was I.

The new show is fabulous! Thank everyone for a spectacular performance and an incredible evening of superb entertainment!!!

‘simply the best’ says it all!

Ps…My hands are still stinging from clapping so much and my voice is just now returning from singing with Luisa!

Cheers,

LAST NIGHT WE HAD THE HONOUR OF SEEING LUISA MARSHALL HERE IN SURREY BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA. WHAT A SHOW. UNBELIVABLE. WILL SHE BE DOING ANOTHER SHOW AROUND THIS AREA? IF SO, WHERE AND WHEN??

My wife and I in our early 70s have just returned home from the evening in Sidney with Luisa Marshall and her dancers and band.

We are exhilirated and still excited about the total performances of everyone! What a great talented group of performers and musicians.

Sidney was rocking tonight!

“Tina” was particularly charming to the spectators and described her group’s tour from Powell River and on to Vancouver. What a demanding schedule.

I wish we could show them all Sidney-By-the-Sea as they didn’t have time to see our area.

Please convey our thanks to all concerned. It was wonderful.

Greg and Pat Stevens from Sidney BC on Vancouver Island

 

Hi Luisa,

I am really impressived how your performance was done in trail B.C. this year, all the people in town were talking about you and your team for a month.

I hope you come back very soon, please let me know in advanced so I will make sure that I can get the tickets for my whoe family.

Congratulations.

Fredy Castro

 

My I take this opportunity to congratulate you on a phenomenal performance staged at the Centennial Theatre on January 26, 2007 in North Vancouver. The energy, passion, and your ability to touch your audience at their core, Luisa, is a trait that is truly seen only in performers that are simply the best! Steven, your managerial behind the scenes dedication, commitment and attention to detail were exemplified in the show’s fluidity, expression and evident successful result.

May I extend to you much success in your future endeavours and may God bless you for providing a way of touching people’s hearts!

Yours in health,

Dr. Peter W. Mulyk

 

“Dear Steve & Luisa: The Lady in Red party was a huge success and the 260 women who attended are still talking about what a fantastic time they had!! Luisa rocked and her performance was outstanding. The women who attended loved being up on the stage with Luisa and her ability to get the audience to participate really added to the show. Believe me, this event will be the talk of the town for a long time! I have had several requests for your contact information so I’m sure you will be back in this area soon. We netted $9,000 for the local Boys & Girls Club – the event sold out way back in July so it really was a huge success. Again, our sincere thanks for putting on such a great show. It was a pleasure working with you and I will look for other opportunities to have you back in the Comox Valley. ”

Judy Atkinson

“I recently had the pleasure and opportunity to catch a great group at the Central City Brewpub in Surrey. “Luisa Marshall with her Big Night Out Band and Hotleggz Dancers”, an awesome performer and extraordinary consummate entertainer. I enjoyed sharing the stage with you guys. Keep on rocking the world with your love. Luisa – you’re the best!”

To Whom It May Concern;

While employed with the Canadian Forces Personnel Support Agency (CFPSA) as a Show Tour Escort Officer in support of the Middle East Show Tour (7 – 17 Dec 05), I had the privilege of working with Luisa Marshall. The mandate of the CFPSA Show Tour is to contribute to the morale and welfare of those Canadian Forces members serving abroad. While in Theatre, Luisa performed as part of the Show Tour in both Camp Calumet (Egypt) and Zouani (Israel). In addition to her highly professional and friendly demeanour, Luisa paid particular attention to the unique cultural differences that existed within the audience and catered to those needs/sensitivities. This certainly heightened the experience for all in attendance as they felt as though she didn’t just come to entertain, but to truly give the audience an experience from her heart. This was apparent when speaking to the military members during the social gatherings, which took place after these shows. They couldn’t thank Luisa enough for her performance and how much it had affected their attitude, lifted their spirits and encouraged their own fond reflections of Canada, home and family. Luisa always took the time to interact with the Canadian Forces members at each Camp in hopes of letting them know that we were more than pleased to be there, make them smile and pass the word that Canada truly appreciates their commitment to our peace and the fact that they were there at an especially hard time of year.

Sincerely;

Lori Watts

Personnel Support Programs Manager

 

Hi Luisa,

My wife and I and some of our friends were at your show Saturday July 18 at the Surrey Arts Centre, for the 4 p.m. matinee. We were in the front row and you very graciously let me sing a few lines of “The Best” with you. Thank you for that! As a long time musician/ entertainer, I go to as many concerts as I can make, as I love the energy of live shows. I have always been a little reluctant to see impersonator/tribute acts; possibly because of the saturation of Elvises. But you are more than just a tribute artist … Luisa, you are an extremely talented and gifted performer. Your show was incredible, and far more entertaining than some of the shows we’ve seen featuring some so-called “big names” in the business. Good luck in all your endeavors and I hope we can catch your show again sometime soon. Simply put, “You’re Simply The Best” !!

Sincerely, Peter Williams

 

AFTER COMMING TO THE SURREY ARTS CENTRE SHOW JULY 17TH AND 18TH.

Hey Luisa,

Your show blew me away… i wasn’t really expecting it to be like what is was. It was fantastic. I have never seen anyone change outfits sooooo many times and sooooo fast and EVERY time coming out looking like exactly like Tina. It was incredible. My folks & I were just in awe how you were able to pull off that show. Please tell me you have a crew working back there helping you with those costume changes. Just craziness.

And your dancers were great. I was having fun “So you think you can dance” judging them!!! hahaha I must say Kyle Toy wins the award for best male dancer and i didn’t catch the girls name with shorter curly hair… she was really good too and gets the award for best female dancer! Kyle could make a crazy Michael Jackson. He has some pretty crazy moves.

I mentioned to Steve quickly that I would like to come photograph one of your shows… I’m not sure if you know, but I do some photography… mainly sport action but I would be interested in coming to photograph one of your shows and give you all the photos on a CD. One of my photos is being printed on General Mills Cereal boxes: Cheerios, Fruit Loops, etc. probably some time starting in August.

Any ways… PLEASE keep me informed about your upcoming shows. I really want to see this Lady Gaga & Amy Winehouse act. It’s too bad I’ll be in Calgary this weekend, otherwise I’d be there too.

Keep up the great work.

Talk soon.

Brett
