Fascinating Aida: Charm Offensive, Grand Opera House, February 13
Only One Question for…. Fascinating Aida’s Dillie Keane.
Why is your latest show called Charm Offensive?
“I thought of it! Adele [Anderson] is normally the one who thinks them up. This time she said ‘Charm… something’, and I said, ‘how about Charm Offensive?’. ‘That’s much better,’ she said.
“There’s charm in the show but we can be offensive too. We’re much ruder than we were 30 years ago. Times have changed and we can get away with being much ruder. Everybody’s ruder now. It’s very liberating.”
