Europe: A diverse landscape of languages and cultures awaited her.
Australia: Down Under, she enchanted audiences with her unique blend of talent and humor.

Witty Banter: Bette’s interviews were as entertaining as her performances. She quizzed Australians about ocker humor, slang, and class dynamics. Her satirical shots spared no town or topic.

Audience Connection: Bette’s charisma bridged continents. She left an indelible mark on hearts worldwide, whether in a plush Beverly Hills mansion or a European theater.
Bette Midler’s 1978 tour was a whirlwind of laughter, music, and irrepressible spirit. She sang, joked, and conquered stages from Hollywood to Oslo, proving that humor knows no borders.
