Heidi Thompson is the premier CHER impersonator with credits that include guest-starring roles on national sit-com “The Nanny”, NBC Variety Show “Friday Night”, "The View", and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show".  Ms. Thompson has also starred in the award-winning show, “Legends In Concert” at the Imperial Palace Hotel in Las Vegas since 1990.  Legends In Concert has been at the Imperial Palace for over thirteen years and has multiple touring companies around the world. To date, Heidi has been the only CHER impersonator in the entire company, which employs up to ten impersonator shows at one time.  Most recently, Heidi has been on the road promoting Nickelodeon’s new television network, “TV Land,” which hosts reruns of “The Sonny & Cher Show.”

The highlight of her act includes an audience participation in which Heidi brings an unsuspecting male onto the stage, places a “Sonny Bono” wig upon his head and makes him sing “I Got You Babe” with her.  She includes a wealth of improvisational skills that can be tailored to the demographic and occupational category of your client.

Ms. Thompson can portray the “70’s” Cher with long, straight hair, 70’s attire and appropriate songs from the era, or she can portray the “90’s” Cher with the accompanying costumes and music.

Lastly, her costumes and patter can be made to fit into any rating from “PG to R.”  In other words, from evening gown to G-string and tattoos!

Whatever the audience, Heidi Thompson will give them a show they will never forget, and neither will you!

Reviews

CHER CHAMELEON... Heidi Thompson’s portrayal of Cher has elicited responses running from “uncanny” to “unbelievable” to “scary”. The look, the raw sexy feel is packaged so perfectly it is sure to give Sonny Bono chills.

Utilizing a myriad of wig styles and suggestive costumes (and strategically placed tattoos), Thompson becomes Cher on stage. 
The illusion doesn’t stop at the look.  Her vocal accuracy is on target...as is her wit and all important Cher-like attitude.

One of the highlights of her set is a send up of Bono as Thompson goes out into the audience and coerces a suspect into singing the hit “I Got You Babe”.  A corny wig, an uncomfortable fidget and the edgy feel that comes with unrehearsed comedy make the bit.

As she dead pans to the audience, using “Sonny” as her foil, Thompson brings back to life those popular segments from Cher’s television days.  In fact, Thompson exceeds the celebrity she attempts to portray.  Her sense of humor is sharper than Cher’s and her ability to turn a quick phrase makes the set work to a higher plane than if she was but a one dimensional impressionist.

Thompson has been a stand out with “Legends In Concert” for many years.  Locals and Laughlin regulars may recall she was with the original company of the Flamingo Hilton Laughlin’s “American Superstars” show when that show was a staple of the Laughlin entertainment scene.

September 20 - 26, 1995

The Imperial Theatre, in Las Vegas’ Imperial Palace, is the home of the creatively exciting “Legends In Concert”.  The “Legends” show features live re-creations of superstars from yesterday and today, including Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, The Four Tops, Richie Valens, Cher, Tom Jones and the Righteous Brothers, to name just a few.  You can’t believe how good this show is, until you’ve seen it.  Cher, alone, is worth the price of admission.
