Buddy

Our 2007 production at the Lyceum Theatre, Sheffield was a musical celebration of the last three years of Buddy's life - during which time he became the world's top recording artist.
The show featured many of Buddy Holly's greatest hits including "Peggy Sue", "That'll be the Day", "Rave On", "Heartbeat" and many more!
 
With the Big Bopper's "Chantilly Lace" and Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba", this dazzling extrazaganza  will have the whole audience rocking and bopping in the aisles!
 
Directed by Susan McCormick; Musical Director Anna Wright; Choreography by Claire Harriott.
