On Aug. 23 Paige will join several other stars of the West End stage — including Sally Ann Triplett, Simon Bowman and James Graeme — for "Music Under the Stars." The evening will feature showstoppers from the musical theatre, and Paige is expected to offer tunes from Evita, Cats and Sunset Boulevard. Martin Yates will conduct the West End Orchestra; show time is 8 PM. Opera singer Terfel said in a statement, "I’m so pleased that Elaine has agreed to come to Faenol this year. To be able to feature international artists of the calibre of José Carreras and Elaine Paige each year is a true recognition of our growing status on the international festival circuit. I’m really excited about this year’s line-up and I’m sure it’s going to be a fabulous fun weekend for everybody."

Arguably Britain's most successful musical theatre actress, Elaine Paige has starred on the London stage in Evita, Cats, Chess, Anything Goes, Piaf, Sunset Boulevard and The King and I. She made her Broadway debut to much acclaim as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard, and her numerous recordings include “Stages,” “Cinema,” “Love Hurts,” “The Queen Album,” “Romance and the Stage” and “Encore.”
