Showbiz Christchurch brings to the stage a sensational new production of

THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY
written by Alan Janes
THE MAN, THE MUSIC… THE LEGEND
“Its Buddy Brilliant”
Over 30 years ago, the man who changed the face of popular music tragically died in a plane crash aged 22. Now BUDDY the musical tells the story of the three years in which he became the world's top recording artist with a show that features over 20 of Buddy Holly's greatest rock ‘n’ rolls hits including “ La Bamba’, 'Peggy Sue', 'That'll Be The Day', 'Oh Boy', 'Rave On', 'Heartbeat' and 'Raining In My Heart'.
BUDDY has had audiences on their feet in every corner of the globe and now ”the world’s most successful rock ‘n’ roll musical” is coming to Christchurch and is ready to explode on to the stage in a toe-tapping, hand-clapping, get-up-and-get-dancing extravaganza!
This show is not to be missed as Buddy and company sing their way through the best rock ‘n’ roll songs ever written.
“It’s Buddy Brilliant.”
The Sun
“Buddy will have them bopping in the aisles for a long time to come.”
Daily Telegraph

“The show is an unashamed, rabble-rousing fiesta. It’s got everything.”
