Dame Edna Tickets

Dame Edna, a character invented by Australian comedian Barry Humphries, has had a very interesting life ? we will ignore the fact that most of it is made up. What?s important is that she?s willing to share her tales with fans all over the globe.

Edna was born Edna May Beazley in Wagga Wagga in Australia, and began her stage career as Mrs. Norm Everage, the typical Australian Housewife. When Edna?s husband died of prostate cancer, she founded a charity called Friends of the Prostate and invented The World Prostate Olympics. When not working with the program, she visits world leaders and spreads her time between her homes in Lost Angeles, London, Sydney, Switzerland and Martha?s Vineyard.

Edna has four adult children ? daughters Valmai and Lois and sons Bruce and Kenneth. While she alludes to them being homosexual, she does not seem aware of what she is describing. Edna?s mother is currently serving time in a "maximum-security twilight home for the bewildered."

After beginning her career in Australia in 1955, she became popular in the 1980?s and 1990?s for her television shows. In 2000 and 2004, she broke into the American scene with some appearances on Broadway, including a number of monologues and interactions with audience members. Edna also appeared on the television series Ally McBeal as Claire Otoms.

More recently, Edna has been featured in "The Dame Edna Treatment," where celebrity guests come for treatments in Edna?s salon. She also regularly tours the country ? when she isn?t meeting with dignitaries or the Queen of England, that is.
