The country star and the housewife
First premiering in New York in 2013, Always...Patsy Cline has become something of a sleeper hit musical and sometimes overlooked by the bigger budget Beautiful musical. However, this enchanting, intimate production celebrates not only a prodigious musical talent but also a friendship with one of her biggest fans, a housewife called Louise Segar. Charting this extraordinary bond through their letters and visits from that chance meeting in a honky tonk bar in Houston, until Cline's tragic death at age 30 this musical also features 27 classic numbers including "Crazy," "Walkin' After Midnight," "I Fall to Pieces," and "Sweet Dreams".
Anchoring this production is a charming mix of down home country humor, emotion and even some audience participation for a lucky few. An absolute must-see for fans of Cline and country - and even a great idea to take your gal pals to go and watch!
