Self-defined
diva Bette Midler performs her take on comedy and
perverse pop music in this unforgettable concert
performance, filmed live at Pasadena's Civic Auditorium.
Rotating between comic monologues and energetic musical
numbers, DIVINE MADNESS proves why Midler has such a
dedicated legion of fans. Vocal luminaries the Harlettes
and Luther Vandross appear to help out Midler, which
makes for a far more soulful experience. The film
features 16 hit numbers, including "Leader of the
Pack," "Big Noise From Winnetka,"
"Paradise," "Shiver Me Timbers,"
"Fire Down Below," "Stay With Me,"
"My Mother’s Eyes," "Chapel of
Love/Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy," "Do You Want to
Dance," "You Can’t Always Get What You
Want/I Shall Be Released," and many more. A
must-have for fans of the pop diva, DIVINE MADNESS is
also a perfect introduction to those unfamiliar with the
entertainer’s staged performances.
