Bye Bye Birdie - only 3 shows to go
The WHS and Community production of the 1950's 'Bye Bye Birdie' has only three more performance to run. This musical is set in 1958 and was inspired by the phenomenon of popular singer Elvis Presley and his draft into the Army in 1957. The rock star in this musical is "Conrad Birdie” who is the biggest thing to top the charts.
Women love Conrad, men want to be like him and teenage girls around the country scream with glee at the mere mention of his name. But when the United States Army drafts Birdie, Manager Albert Peterson sees his meal ticket preparing to fly the coop. Desperate for a publicity stunt big enough to help them survive Birdie’s departure, Albert hatch’s a plan to save his famous stars career, and to shore up his own bank account.
This is a great show with lots of great music and performances – and an excellent nights entertainment.
Performances Friday 21st at 7 pm, Saturday 1pm and Saturday 22nd at 7pm. Concession prices for families, seniors, students and children.
