Before parting company in 1993, Siobahn Fahey and Marcella Detroit made two albums and a number of singles (including the eight-week number 1 hit “Stay”) as Shakespears Sister in just four years.

A couple of months after their biggest hit, they toured the UK, and we were lucky enough to see them. These pictures were taken at the Aston Villa Leisure Centre, in Birmingham, in the middle of their last tour as a duo.
