Olivia Newton-John brings Live Concert to OP, FL

Internationally recognized four-time Grammy Award-winning singer, actress, community activist and breast cancer “Thriver” Olivia Newton-John performs live in concert at the Thrasher-Horne Center in Orange Park.
With a career spanning over five decades with more than 100 million albums sold, Olivia’s successes include: four Grammys, numerous Country Music, American Music, Billboard and People’s Choice Awards, an Emmy Award, ten #1 hits and more than 15 Top 10 singles.  She recently scored another #1 hit, this time on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart with her daughter Chloe Lattanzi – becoming the first mother/daughter duo to top this chart.  In 1978, her co-starring role with John Travolta in “Grease” catapulted Olivia into super-stardom and to date remains the most successful movie musical of all time.

In 1992, Olivia was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Her personal triumph against cancer led her to announce her partnership with the Austin Health and the creation of the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Center (ONJCWRC) in her hometown of Melbourne, Australia, which opened its doors in 2012.  The Centre provides a comprehensive range of services and facilities for cancer treatment, education, training and research as well as a dedicated wellness center.

Her latest recording, “LIV ON,” a collaborative, inspiring new CD with friends Beth Nielsen Chapman and Amy Sky is intended for those who wish to transcend loss while walking a journey toward new-found meaning and hope, was recently released to critical acclaim.  For more information visit: her website or follow her on Twitter @OliviaNJ or Instagram @TheRealONJ.  This concert is presented in partnership with Get Off the Bus Concerts.
