The show was great and the cast fantastic. We really enjoyed the performance. Fun music and lots of energy.
Attended on Saturday 7/21 and show was due to close next day. Lots of great merchandise at low prices because of that. My friend got a hat marked down to a $1 that was previously $12. I was introduced to Holly's music by my late brother and the actor who played Buddy was spot on. The supporting actors were fantastic. The crowd was on their feet by the end of the show which included an encore. It was neat because the woman who played his wife actually WAS his wife in real life. I was able to save some money on the seating due a special WST offer as well. Always a great time at the Walnut.
Great show. Felt like I was at a concert. The music and the musicians were fantastic and seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Excellent musical.. Pleasantly surprised. The talent of the cast was incredible.. Thanks for a fun afternoon.
15 years as a Patron of Walnut Street Theatre, One of the best of the 75 Shows that we have seen there !!!
Holly story was fabulous and I would recommend it to any one. And thank you for having them on 1/2 Philly.com..
We couldn't see Buddy on our subscription and gave away our tickets. The firends who took them said it was so great we had to go. So we bought tickets to the last Sunday matinee. Our friends were right. The only thing not great about the whole performance was the seats we bought were much better than our subscription seats!!!
A very enjoyable show...very well done. The actors and actresses were multi talented. There were a nice mix of everything. The energy level brought to the stage was outstanding. The actor playing Buddy Holly was awesome.
Loved the show. The music was great. Brought you up at the right times and was mellow at the right times.
