Kelly O’Brien Brings the Music and Magic of Dolly Parton to Stages Around the World

Few performers have captured the voice, personality, and unmistakable charm of Dolly Parton quite like Kelly O’Brien. The Australian-born entertainer has spent nearly two decades bringing the Queen of Country’s music to audiences around the world, earning recognition for her remarkable portrayal.

O’Brien is no ordinary tribute performer. Endorsed by the Parton family and selected by Dolly Parton Enterprises to serve as Dolly’s body double for film, she has built an international reputation for her attention to detail, vocal ability, and natural stage presence.

Her talents have also caught the attention of major media outlets, with appearances on BBC One, ITV’s This Morning, and other television programs. In 2025, O’Brien was the only UK finalist in the worldwide #SearchForDolly casting search for Dolly Parton’s Broadway musical.

The Dolly Show: More Than a Tribute

Backed by a live band, The Dolly Show takes audiences through six decades of Dolly Parton’s legendary catalog, featuring favorites such as “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” “Coat of Many Colors,” “Islands in the Stream,” and “I Will Always Love You.”

With dazzling costumes, plenty of humor, and O’Brien’s incredible vocals, the production delivers a full theatrical concert experience that celebrates the music and personality of one of country music’s most beloved entertainers.

The show has toured internationally, entertaining audiences across the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, and beyond.

Bringing The Dolly Show to North American Audiences

As the production continues its international success, Love Productions is working with theaters, performing arts centers, casinos, and entertainment venues to bring The Dolly Show to audiences throughout North America.

Among the upcoming performances is a March 24, 2027, appearance at the Orange Blossom Opry in Weirsdale, Florida, featuring two shows at 2:30 PM and 7:00 PM.

For talent buyers and venue operators looking for a recognizable production with broad audience appeal, The Dolly Show offers a celebration of music that has connected generations of fans.
