Diamond look-and-sound-alike Keith Allynn unveils the story of Neil Diamond’s life through his songs from the ‘60s through today, while weaving in his own incredible love story and unexpected career change from a top 10 Elvis to Neil Diamond, all for the love of a woman. Seven-time Branson Show Award winner Keith Allynn began his career in stand-up comedy at the age of 14 opening for such greats as Chris Rock, Tim Allen and Robin Williams. At 21, Keith discovered his musical talents while performing “All Shook Up” at a karaoke night. The girls went wild, and Keith was hooked. For several years he continued to perform as an Elvis tribute artist and was voted a top-ten Elvis by Graceland. Later, trying to impress a girl who was a huge Neil Diamond fan, he called her on the phone and in his best “Neil” voice sang “Hello Again” from the Jazz Singer. It became their song, she became his wife, and he became The Diamond Image. Wife, Diana Allynn, joins Keith for Neil Diamond’s duet with Barbra Streisand, “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers.” Come and see the story unfold live along with the story of Neil Diamond’s life, his struggles and triumphs, while enjoying hits like “Sweet Caroline,” “Song Sung Blue,” “Hello Again,” “Brother Love,” “America” and many more.
