The musical play “Always…Patsy Cline” is coming to Wickenburg’s Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts, 1090 S. Vulture Mine Road.
Performances are 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 6, and 3:30 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 7.
The two-person show is based on a true story of the special friendship Cline had with Houston housewife Louise Seger.
In 1961, Cline traveled alone to Houston for a show and met ardent fan Seger at the Texas honky-tonk where she was playing. The two women struck up a friendship that lasted until Cline’s death in a plane crash in 1963.
Featuring 27 of Cline’s hits, including chart-toppers like “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Walking After Midnight,” the show promises a musical journey through the highs and lows of her career.
Through letters and visits, the two stars share the stories of laughter and heartache that brought together a traditional homemaker and a legendary country singer.
Actress Misty Rowe, known for her roles in “Hee Haw” and “Happy Days,” takes on the role of Louise Seger. Cindy Summers, with roles in “Oliver” and “Showboat,” embodies Cline. Accompanied by a live, five-piece band, the stage comes alive with the sounds of classic country music.
Tickets start at $50 for adults and $5 for those 18 and younger.
