By: Kelsey Denette
The musical play telling the story of legendary country singer Patsy Cline and her most devoted fan, ALWAYS... PATSY CLINE kicks off Theatre at the Center's 2012 season. Based on a true story of this unparalleled pioneer for female performers and a fan from Houston she befriended in a Texas honky-tonk, the production previewed February 23, opened February 26 and runs through April 1.
ALWAYS...PATSY CLINE is directed by Brian Russell. Russell, making his Theatre at the Center debut, is the former Artistic Director of American Theater Company and Director of the 1996 Chicago Premiere of ALWAYS...PATSY CLINE which transferred from Northlight Theatre in Evanston to a lengthy commercial run at Chicago's Apollo Theater.
Also making her Theatre at the Center debut, newcomer Heather Beck will star as "Patsy Cline". Beck, along with Theatre at the Center's Marketing Director Patty Bird, recently met Katie Couric. Check out a photo below!
