Loved by critics and audiences alike, Buddy tells the enduring tale of the musical

icon’s meteoric rise to fame and his final legendary performance at the Surf Ballroom

in Clear Lake, Iowa, before his tragic and untimely death at the age of 22. In 18 short

months the Texas-born boy revolutionized the face of contemporary music

influencing everyone from The Beatles to Bruce Springsteen. Audiences will be

treated to 20 of Buddy Holly’s greatest hits, including timeless classics That’ll Be The

Day, Peggy Sue, Oh Boy and Rave On.

Since its inception, Buddy has inspired a generation of multi-million selling juke-box

musicals including Mamma Mia and We Will Rock You, but remains the true original

and a musical phenomenon. Seen by over 22 million music fans since it opened in

London’s West End in 1989, Buddy speaks an international language and continues

to have audiences from aged 8 to 80 years old rockin’ in the aisles across the globe!
