Review: RAVE ON: The Undying Appeal of Buddy Holly
by Carla Maria Verdino-Süllwold - Oct 6, 2025

In recent years Maine State Music Theatre has presented THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY on two occasions – both to sold out houses.  The undying appeal of the rock ‘n’ roll pioneer’s rags to riches story and his tragic early death captivate audiences, but it is without question the series of blockbuster musical hits that form the score which makes THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY irresistible. And so MSMT, for its final concert tribute concert at the Donald M. Gay auditorium in Auburn, has assembled a tribute to Holly and his two foremost colleagues:  the Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens. RAVE ON will remind audiences of the thrill of the mega mix that closes THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY – only, in this case, the delight continues over two hours with music that defined early rock ‘n’ roll.
