The Drama Workshop
April 28-May 20
Glenmore Playhouse [Cheviot]

Directed by Robert Weidle
Musical direction by Linda Abbott
Produced by Gretchen Gantner

Cast: Cynthia Mottel as Patsy Cline & Jennifer Keith as Louise

ALWAYS…PATSY CLINE is more than a tribute to the legendary country singer, but a touching, humorous, and insightful tale about an unlikely friendship between the star and her biggest fan. The show is based on a true story about Cline’s relationship with a devotee from Houston named Louise Seger, who befriended the singer in a Texas honky-tonk in l961, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her untimely death. The musical play, complete with down-home country humor, genuine emotion, and even some audience participation, includes dozens of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Walking After Midnight.” Don’t miss this captivating gem of a show, which has received glowing praise from audiences across America.
