Sharon
Owens
Sharon began touring all over the world as a singer/ dancer with American Entertainment Productions opening for acts such as the Letterman, the Mandrell sisters, Willie Nelson, Loretta Lynn and many more country acts. Although performing was Sharon's dream, so was getting an education. Sharon earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Humanities and Vocal Music from the University of South Florida and is still pursuing her Master's in Education from Chapman University. In 1990, she continued to work her way through college by singing/dancing at Busch Gardens theme park in Tampa, Florida, while she also did commercial studio work for Sea World and performed in musical theater. Her college summers were spent touring the United States and England. Sharon's career as a Barbra Streisand Impersonator/Tribute artist began in 1992, when Sharon moved to Los Angeles where she began singing Streisand in dinner theaters and cabaret night clubs. Her uncanny resemblance and vocal ability to sing Streisand, started her career as a Legends performer. Most recently Sharon has turned to television where she was crowned the winner of the hit TV show on Fox called "Performing As..." Her national success has created a whirl wind of Barbra fans waiting to see Sharon's famous tribute. Since her TV success, she has been seen on Access Hollywood, Extra, Entertainment Tonight and even paid a visit to the Family Feud. She has been performing her "Tribute to Barbra Streisand" to critical acclaim nationwide in major showrooms, for corporate events and as a Headliner in Las Vegas. Sharon also tours with DK productions of "The Diva's" an all female cast direct from Las Vegas. She will soon be gracing one of the finest stages in Europe, in Berlin, Germany, "Stars in Concert".
