Debbie Wileman is a vocal impressionist specializing in Judy Garland, Shirley Bassey, Marilyn Monroe, Barbra Streisand, Julie Andrews and Billie Holliday. Wileman seems to be following in the footsteps of Judy, Barbra and Gaga with her very own A Star is Born story. Over the pandemic, Wileman began singing “A Song A Day” and posting them on Facebook. With over one million views later, she became an overnight internet sensation. Following her sold-out debut last November starring in Massive Little Voice on tour, Wileman won the audience award for Best Vocalist with the Broadway World Cabaret Awards. An accomplished actress, a natural comedian and an extraordinary vocal impressionist, her impression of Judy Garland has been called ‘uncanny’ and ‘astonishing.’ ### www.facebook.com/Debbie.Saloman www.instagram.com/debwileman
