Multiple award-winning Barbra Streisand Tribute Artist, Carla DelVillaggio, has been described as
“funny”, “charismatic”, “can improvise on the spot”, “creates the perfect illusion as Streisand”, “has
Streisand’s signature phrasing, timing and vocal mannerisms”.
Ms. DelVillaggio has entertained across the country from Miami to Las Vegas to New York City. From
the hair, down to the trademark nails, and meticulously detailed replicas of iconic concert gowns, she is
"Simply Streisand" in every way. Carla’s jaw-dropping recreation, evokes the excitement and high
energy vocals of Streisand’s most powerful numbers, as well as the beauty and purity of sound essential
for the ballads so closely associated with this greatest of all singing actresses. Her keen sense of comedic
timing, and ability to ad-lib, add to the overall illusion of portraying the original “Funny Girl”. She has
entertained at Theatres, Performing Arts Centers, private parties and corporate events, benefits and
fundraisers, Synagogues, Jewish Community Centers, and Adult Communities, all over the country, and
has performed several times on the Legends Stage, at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. Her NYC debut,
where she crafted three “completely different” cabaret shows at the Laurie Beechman Theatre garnered
her rave reviews.
