Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story

Why see Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story?

Rave On

Who knows what Buddy Holly might have accomplished had he not stepped foot inside that Beechcraft Bonanza airplane some 55 years ago. At the age of only 22, he had already had a monumental effect on the course of popular music in the 21st Century.

Chronicling his all-too short career, Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story opens with Holly still a bespectacled unknown, playing his controversial new style of rock 'n' roll in Lubbock, Texas. Written by Alan Janes, the musical follows his rise to stardom by way of over twenty of his best known tracks, including That'll Be the Day, Peggy Sue and Rave On.

One of the most successful rock musicals in history, Buddy has been delighting millions of theater-goers worldwide since it first opened in London's West End in 1989. A must for any fans of early rock 'n' roll or just about anyone ready for a good time.
