Buddy Holly in 1957

OH BOY…Buddy is back, by overwhelming demand! Experience the incredible legacy of the young man with glasses, whose musical career spanned an all-too-brief period during the golden days of rock ‘n’ roll. On February 3rd, 1959, the man who changed the face of popular music tragically died in a plane crash aged 22.

Now, Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story tells the tale of the three years in which he became the world’s top recording artist with a show that features over 20 of Buddy Holly’s greatest hits including “Peggy Sue”, “That’ll Be The Day”, “Oh Boy”, “Not Fade Away”, “Everyday”, “Rave On”, “Maybe Baby”, “Raining In My Heart”, plus Ritchie Valens’ “La Bamba”, and the Big Bopper’s “Chantilly Lace”.

This incredibly popular production is back with added scenes, a new look, and the same energetic music that you loved the first time around!
(SSTattler: It is a little bit expensive (approx $100 per ticket) but you heard "Buddy" then you have to go!)

Buddy Holly

     From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.


Charles Hardin Holley (September 7, 1936 – February 3, 1959), known professionally as Buddy Holly, was an American singer-songwriter and a pioneer of rock and roll. Although his success lasted only a year and a half before his death in an airplane crash, Holly is described by critic Bruce Eder as "the single most influential creative force in early rock and roll. "His works and innovations inspired and influenced contemporary and later musicians, notably The Beatles, Elvis Costello, The Rolling Stones, Don McLean, Bob Dylan, and Eric Clapton, and exerted a profound influence on popular music. Holly was among the first group of inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked Holly #13 among "The 100 Greatest Artists of All Time".
