Neil Diamond Mother's Day Brunch

  • Tony Starlight Showroom 1125 Southeast Madison Street Portland, OR, 97214 United States (map)

Hello friends,
Due to the statewide ban on public gatherings, and to allay concerns of spreading COVID-19, we are rescheduling shows at Tony Starlight Showroom.
The exact rescheduled dates are TBD and will be announced as more information becomes available. If you have tickets, we will automatically transfer them to the new date and send you new tickets. If you cannot attend that evening, you will retain a credit for use to any upcoming show at Tony Starlight Showroom. We will waive any fees associated with rescheduling.
Over the coming weeks, we will know more about the situation. Until then, keep calm, wash your hands and know that I will miss you terribly.
Your regional man of mystery,
Tony

Moms love Neil and Neil loves Moms!

Note: This is an afternoon show. Please read the arrival timeline below carefully.

Bring Mom out for brunch and Tony shall Neil before you! Along with a six-piece band, Tony performs a loving tribute to Neil Diamond with equal parts heart and laughter. Musically, the performance is spot-on. In fact, Tony Starlight sounds so much like Diamond that fans have remarked, "it's eerie!" But what makes this show special are the laughs.

Whether it’s monologues about the lifestyle of a living legend and the burdens of carrying around such enormous talent, or challenging the audience to perform better, or an all-new take on “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, no other Diamond tribute is this much fun. And we guarantee it’s the only tribute with simulated figure skating! Here’s the kicker: Even people who don’t like Neil Diamond like this show! You know what you call people who don’t like Neil Diamond, don’t ya? LIARS!
