She is unbeatable
Helena live at Lucerna, 19 December 2009
Two sold-out concerts at the Lucerna concert hall in Prague confirm once again that Helena is the biggest pop star in Czech Republic. Even the presence of hundreds of international fans from Germany, Russia, Sweden or Poland confirms that she is one of the biggest stars in Central Europa as well. One of the Russian fans spent two nights and one whole day on the train from Moscow to Prague only to see Helena on stage. After the show it was time to take the same train back...
The new show performed by the star during the two sold-out nights at the Lucerna Concert Hall in Prague features Helena at her best with both old hits and brand new songs released about four weeks ago on her new album "You stay here with me". The show has some absolutely stunning surprises as for instance Helena's dance performance of "Sir Duke" with 7 young tapdancers!
The concert starts at 7 pm and ends after 11 pm - the giant show lasts 4 hours! Helena is dancing and singing and the audience does not want her to finish... She sings of course her evergreens as her version of ABBA's The Winner Takes It All, Lasku ma ja stunu, Cervena reka...
She is accompanied by a very good band and proffesional and talented three girls in the choir. Special guests: No Name and Sarka Vankova.
The audience loves Helena and Helena loves her audience. She is the best selling Czech female artist ever and still after more than 40 years on stage the Top 5 singer in Czech Republic who sells out large arenas. Hard working and ambitious - beautiful and full of energy
