Dolly Parton To Tour Europe

COPENHAGEN (October 23, 2006) — Dolly Parton will kick off her first major European tour since the 1970s in Denmark next year.

The 60-year-old country singer will begin her eight-stop tour in Horsens, 125 miles west of Copenhagen, on March 7, said Horsens Ny Teater, a theater company organizing the Danish concert.

Parton will continue to Norway, Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands, England and Scotland before ending the tour April 2 in Dublin, Ireland, the company said Monday.

Horsens Ny Teater said it was the first time since the 1970s that Parton had embarked on a major European tour.

Parton’s hits include “Jolene,” “I Will Always Love You” and “Here You Come Again.” She also starred in several Hollywood films, including “9 to 5,” “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas” and “Steel Magnolias.”
