pagesix.com/2019/03/01/jackie-evancho-to-perform-first-local-show-since-moving-to-nyc/Jackie Evancho is all grown up and ready to take New York City by storm. The 18-year-old “America’s Got Talent” star is set to perform on April 23 at Feinstein’s/54 Below, marking her first onstage appearance in NYC since moving here in January. “Living in New York was something that I grew to really want,” she told Page Six on Friday via email. “I loved the busy life and the constant movement and when I moved here, I finally got to be a part of that. I love always being able to do something and go somewhere or experience something new.” She added, “As for my first show in NYC as an adult, I’m incredibly excited! This will be my first show in my new hometown. I’m proud to call myself a New Yorker.” Evancho will perform songs from her new album “The Debut,” which is being released on April 12.

"I’m so proud of this young woman. The leaps and bounds she’s already made in the short time we’ve worked together is staggering. I’m proud to be her Concert Director and to build her a show that premieres on April 23rd in New York City before we travel the country and world to concert halls and amphitheaters. A few tickets are left to the debut of the show before it goes on the road. You don’t want to miss it. It’s platinum recording artist Jackie Evancho as you’ve never seen before." -Will Nunziata

I hope that the reference to "travel ... the world" has some meat to it and something is being done to see that happen. At 18, neither child labor laws nor child education laws nor parental protectiveness can prevent it if Jackie wants to, and of course if some venues want her. I don't think she'd have any trouble getting booked in places she's been before, like Canada or Japan - maybe not even China, given whatever exposure Troy gave her there; and perhaps the UK, given the BGT guest appearance as something to refer people to. Additional locations might require additional references, promotion, etc. How much of that she really wants is IMO as much a question as how much she can get. The UK isn't too far in terms of travel time (Dublin is maybe an hour closer! And there's always Reykjavik, Iceland, closer still), but everything else (esp. the Far East, despite that she'd probably do well there) is far enough to be both wearing and expensive in its own right. And unless one can book multiple stops (or multiple days at a single stop, if it will sell), the logistics start to look prohibitive, both from the standpoint of overhead for recovery and rehearsal, and just the cost of travel. World touring is much easier to say than do. :-)

Let us not forget Fellow Forum Members, that we have heard the words "World Tour" before, and she never left North America! Remember the David Foster gig somewhere near Toronto was dubbed a "World Tour"!

She has a lot to learn before she's ready to take on the world, IMO.

More than one country is "international", if not greatly so. I suppose it could be "world" too, but that seems a bit overstated, although promotional statements (by just about anyone) do tend to push the limits of what something could mean. I am a bit curious why previous "world" touring turned out to be so modest. The early alleged pass on Europe for Simon when Jackie was 10 or 11, I can understand (that's a LOT for a 10/11 y/o, let alone disruptive for the family, despite the opportunity passed up). But later, I wonder if it still wasn't attempted, or it turned out to be harder than expected without such a promoter?

I certainly can understand why Lisa put down that idea back then, and it probably was the correct thing to do for Jackie at that age, but it was a missed opportunity for Jackie.

Its what happens when posters get their info from amazon and I’ve corrected the record for years. In fact I’m the source but then it’s twisted by the women who lied and then it’s taken as gospel. Agog posted similar on other forum. This is the correction folks. Don’t make me post corrections every time. She was offered a German tv gig but that fell on during the filming of the company you keep filming. She also was promoting the gold certificated h c on us tv when she was offered the royal variety show in the uk. As there was no guarantee the queen would show up and she did not. If the gig was so good, her parents would have let her do it. Such as bgt. She has done international headline gigs, she could continue to do just that. Coheadline and openers as well. Np.

As an European, I guess a lot of US people consider the USA as the "world". E.g., the Superbowl Champion is also named "World Champion", even if it is (just) an US Championship (no doubt, no other teams in the rest of the world could compete with NFL-teams).
