In 2005 she completed her triumphant concert tour of Australia, New Zealand and the Far East and in 2006 she released her new album of songs from the stage entitled Essential Musicals followed by a sell-out concert tour of Scandinavia, and the UK prior to taking her new show to China and in March 2007 she performed in concert at the Hong Kong Exhibition and Convention Centre.

Elaine returned to the West End stage in 2007 to critical acclaim in the title role of The Drowsy Chaperone at the Novello Theatre, London for which she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical for her performance in What’s On Stage Awards, London. As well as performing in Europe and in the USA in concert Elaine recorded a track with Secret Garden, The Things You Are You To Me for their number one quadruple-platinum selling album.

September 2008 marked the 40th anniversary of Elaine’s ‘West End’ debut and was celebrated with a book entitled Memories and a sell out international celebratory concert tour across the world including Scandinavia, China, the UK and Ireland (which resulted in a live CD release Elaine Paige Live – Celebrating A Life On Stage), and continued in October of 2009 across Australia & New Zealand where the Sydney concert was filmed for DVD release in March 2010 entitled Elaine Paige Celebrating A Life On Stage.

On her return to the UK Elaine sang I Know Him So Well with Susan Boyle on her TV special I Dreamed a Dream: The Susan Boyle Story. Elaine also performed at the 2010 Cheltenham Jazz Festival showcasing a brand new jazz set to an enthralled audience.

November 2010 saw the release of Elaine’s brand new studio album, Elaine Paige & Friends. Recorded in New York and produced by legendary record producer Phil Ramone for Rhino/Warner Bros Records. It features duets with 14 of her favourite musical performers, and entered the Top 20 in the UK where Elaine was awarded a gold disc for sales over 100,000 by the end of the year.

Elaine return to the concert stage in February 2011 after which she flew to the US to star as Carlotta Campion in Stephen Sondheim’s Follies, at the Kennedy Centre in Washington DC, receiving critical acclaim from reviewers and audiences alike.

Following an intimate concert at Chichester Cathedral, as part of the 2011 festivities, Elaine returned to the USA to reprise her role in Follies – this time on Broadway. Follies opened at the Marquis Theatre in New York on 12th September and once again the critics were unanimous in their praise for her performance and she was nominated for a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical.

2012 kicked off with Elaine performing two concerts at New York’s Lincoln Center – her debut concert performances in New York, which the New York Daily News said “After 34 years, London theatre legend Elaine Paige finally got to sing Don’t Cry for Me Argentina on a New York stage. It was worth the wait.” After a short break Follies moved to the West Coast of America in May to the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles for a limited 6 week only sold out engagement.

The year ended with a series of successful concert appearances in New Zealand, Australia and the Far East and two special concerts in the UK – one at Raymond Blanc’s La Manoir in Oxford and the other for The Prince’s Trust at the Central Hall Westminster in London.

As 2013 commenced Elaine was nominated and won the 2012 BroadwayWorld Los Angeles Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical (Touring) and the original cast recording of Follies, featuring Elaine, was included in the category Best Musical Theater Album in the 55th Grammy Award nominations. Following a tour of Scandinavia Elaine completed her first ever concert tour of the USA – playing to sell out audiences and garnering rave reviews.

2014, kicked off with The Elaine Paige Show on Sky Arts TV. The series was a unique glimpse into the fascinating world of musical theatre and combined a mix of songs, performance and interviews as Elaine was joined each week by a variety of guests from stage and screen. As the series went to air a brand new Warner CD The Ultimate Collection was released to celebrate Elaine’s 50th year in the business featuring hits, rare unreleased tracks and a brand new re-mix of Be On Your Own, from the musical Nine, by Almighty Records.

The year ended with a sell out UK tour including a spectacular night at London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra which was not only broadcast on BBC Radio 2, but was filmed and released in cinemas worldwide and later as a live DVD/CD as I’m Still Here.

2015 saw Elaine continue her 50th Anniversary tour, perform live at the V.E. Day 70 Concert at London’s Horse Guards Parade Ground, top the bill at some summer festival dates in the UK and take on two very different acting roles – one in the indie film Speed Love, which is a thriller based around a speed dating event due for release in 2016 and the other in Russell T Davis’ adaptation of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream in which Elaine played the role of Mistress Quince, head of the mechanicals and director of the play within the play which airs on BBC1 TV on Monday 30th May 2016.

In early 2016 Elaine announced a series of ‘weekend concerts’ entitled Stripped Back, which will see her perform her favourite tracks, from an array of contemporary songwriters, with a small group of musicians in some of the UK’s most beautiful venues

And so with these recent projects along with her continued success on BBC Radio 2 with Elaine Paige On Sunday and much more planned for the future, it’s very fitting for the title of her most recent cinema & DVD release to be … I’m Still Here!
