Gannon, Smith Star in ALWAYS, PATSY CLINE at ACCC
Savannah Gannon and Mary Ellen Smith star in Arts Center of Cannon County's Always Patsy Cline, the award-winning play by Nashville's own Ted Swindley, running June 3-18 in Woodbury.
Always, Patsy Cline is described as "more than a tribute" to the legendary country singer who died tragically at age 30 in a plane crash in 1963. The show is based on a true story about Cline's friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger. This fun-loving, crowd-pleasing musical features 27 classic songs, including "Crazy," "Walkin' After Midnight," "I Fall to Pieces," "Sweet Dreams," "Back In Baby's Arms" and more.
"One day a voice from the television screen spoke to her. Louise Seger was hooked. Making a special trip to a honky-tonk bar in Houston, Texas, Louise met her idol, Patsy Cline. Here was a woman that gave her soul a voice. Over a pot of strong coffee, a friendship began that would last until Patsy's untimely death. Through letters and visits, the two share the homespun stories of laughter and heartache that brought together a housewife and a legendary country singer."
Directed by 2015 First Night Star Award winner Matt Smith, this production features Savannah Gannon as Patsy Cline and 2015 First Night Star Award winner Mary Ellen Smith as Louise Seger.
