When
the character Birdie is drafted into the army, it produces a huge effect on the
teenagers of the small Ohio town in which the musical is set. When a
“Last Kiss” contest is created to mark Birdie’s departure, the whole town is
sent into frenzy.
Directed
by CeCe Prudhomme, Bye Bye Birdie is based on the incredible national
sensation of Elvis Presley, and the effect that being drafted into the U.S.
Army had on his later career.
Playhouse
Director Prudhomme is thrilled to bring this fun, music and dance filled
production to the Memorial/Spring Branch community, along with the fun and the
nostalgia of 1950’s music and style.
