In just three short years, Buddy Holly set the music world on fire, breaking the mold and forever changing the face and sound of rock and roll. BUDDY - THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY charts his meteoric climb, legendary adventures and tragic fall on that fateful day the music died.
Armed with a Fender Stratocaster guitar, his signature specs and a charismatic blend of rockabilly swagger, Buddy explodes onto the stage in a jukebox musical fully loaded with classics “Peggy Sue,” “Oh Boy,” “That’ll Be the Day,” “Well All Right,” “Not Fade Away” and many more. With an encore that will have you on your feet and dancing in the aisles, BUDDY - THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY will “send you out of the theater on an unstoppable high” (The Boston Globe).
