Wayside Theatre Artistic Director Warner Crocker today announced Robbie Limon, who wowed our sold-out audiences as Hank Williams in Hank Williams Story- Lost Highway and Buddy - The Buddy Holly Story and in Southern Crossroads, will be appearing with his band, Robbie Limon Band and others for a Benefit performance for Wayside Theatre on Sunday, November 15th at 7:00 PM at the Wayside Theatre, Middletown, Virginia.

Crocker said "This has been a very difficult year for Wayside Theatre and one of the things that has helped us pull through has been the remarkable talents of our artists who entertain our audiences. When Robbie said he was willing to help, we were thrilled to make this possible. We are excited to have Robbie back at Wayside Theatre because so many patrons have requested to see him perform Hank William, Buddy Holly and Southern Crossroads songs and other standards. And we are very glad to be able to accommodate their request."

"I plus several local music groups wanted to do something for Wayside Theatre and we decided to have a benefit concert on November 15th at Wayside Theatre. So, come to Wayside and relive the music from Southern Crossroads, Hank Williams, Sr, Patsy Cline & Buddy Holly & plus other guest all for a great cause that is Wayside Theatre." stated Robbie Limon.

The show will feature performances of Kevin and Lucille Ball with guitar and vocals, the Rhonda Sager Trio performing the songs of Patsy Cline. The cast of Southern Crossroads performing many of their hits from the musical, Thomasin Savaiano verses percussion (an experience one remembers from the Smoke on the Mountain Trilogy), Robbie Limon Band playing hits from the 70's and Robbie Limon caps the evening with Hank Williams medley and Buddy Holly medley.
