Eurovision’s SuRie promises ‘high-end technology’ in her grand final performance
Saturday night’s final will see a total of 26 countries hoping to take the winning title.
UK Eurovision hopeful SuRie has promised to put on a “beautiful” performance in tonight’s final, helped by an array of dazzling stage effects including a “light tunnel”.
The 29-year-old classically trained musician, whose real name is Susanna Marie Cork, is representing Britain with an anthemic song called Storm.
She is one of 26 acts taking part in the final, which is taking place in Lisbon and also includes a heavy metal band, opera singers, a singing violinist and some miniature dancing robots.
But SuRie believes her mix of music and “high-end technology” will make her stand out in a crowded field of competitors.
“It’s a really special collaboration between the UK team and the Portuguese team over here,” she told the Press Association.
“It’s got a really beautiful concept… a kind of light tunnel that I can move in and out of, supporting the story and enhancing the beats of the song.
