In classic Horatio Alger fashion, miniature powerhouse Dolly Parton escaped her dirt-poor Tennessee roots to find fame and fortune in the big city. Over the past four decades, she's scored 25 number-one singles, toured the world, appeared in a number of classic movies, and even opened a self-branded theme park. Tonight, the maturing Parton lavishes the Chicago Theatre with her soprano vocal stylings, theatrical stage antics, impressive bust line, and self-deprecating humor. Though her most recent album, Backwoods Barbie, has enough pop allusions to put her in the same mainstream spotlight as many of her twangy teen followers, Dolly's classic cuts and stage presence remind us that the hot-pink hit-maker is an irreplaceable original.
