Always...Patsy Cline

Arts & Culture
(Thu. Fri. Sat. )
Location: Old Town Playhouse
HEARTACHE!
        Every once in a while, an artist creates an iconic style and sound that lives far beyond their life and career. Patsy Cline was one of those. Silenced far too soon in 1963 at the age of 30, the heartfelt singing of Patsy Cline is still immediately recognizable and she is as beloved today as she was 45 years ago.
        Always…Patsy Cline, with its down home country humor and true emotion, traces the accidental friendship of Patsy and Louise Seger and features many of Patsy's unforgettable hits including "Crazy," "I Fall to Pieces," "Sweet Dreams" and "Walking After Midnight"…27 songs in all!
This will be a warm and wonderful experience of music, memories and delightful stories to open the 2009-2010 OTP season.
        Thursday, Friday & Saturday performances - 8:00 PM, Sunday performances - 3:00 PM
