This website is dedicated to the one and only, Divine Miss M... Bette Midler. However, unlike so many sites out there, this website is a tribute to something that rarely gets the attention it so truly deserves… Bette's early career.

Long before the days of "Beaches," Bette Midler was known as a concert legend. Her uncanny wit, eccentric improprieties, and self-described "Trash with Flash, Sleaze with Ease" persona won over audiences everywhere. Her nonstop energy and emotional interpretations of songs kept those audiences mesmerized and begging for more. From her start at the infamous "Continental Baths," to record-breaking tours such as, "Clams on the Half Shell Revue," "Bette! Divine Madness" and "De Tour," to her Oscar nominated film debut in "The Rose."  This page covers it all. 

We have photos for you to see, reviews and articles for you to read, audio and video clips for you to enjoy, and tons of information to help open your eyes and allow you to take a sentimental journey back in time to experience - Bette on the Boards.
