Florida Repertory Theatre's production of 'Buddy: the Buddy Holly Story' is now extended to April 24th in the Historic Arcade Theatre. 'Buddy' opened to critical acclaim on March 18th, and has been breaking box office records and garnering praise from critics and audiences alike.

Directed by Florida Rep's Associate Artistic Director, Jason Parrish, Florida Repertory Theatre's production of BUDDY: THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY tells the story of the iconic rock 'n' roll sensation, Buddy Holly, and how he changed the face of popular music sixty years ago. 

Florida Repertory Theatre’s 2021-2022 Season continues the rock ‘n’ roll sensation, “Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story” by Alan Janes. The musical tells the story of Buddy’s rise to stardom and how he transformed popular music almost overnight and plays in the Historic Arcade Theatre from March 18 to April 13. The run includes four nearly sold-out previews from March 15 to 17.

There are shows that make you laugh and others that make you cry. We go to the theatre and are swept away by all kinds of emotions. Some shows make us angry and others inspire hope.
