Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story
Book by Alan Janes and Rob Bettinson
The musical chronicles the 1950’s rise of Buddy Holly and The Crickets from Lubbock, Texas small radio station, his initial success, to his death in a plane crash in 1959, at age 21. Holly's bumpy ride to stardom takes him to New York, where, after a 5-hour courtship, he marries Maria Elena Santiago. Her influence on him forces a break with The Crickets and their manager, and sets Buddy onto a solo career. His decision to go on the road with Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper is one that ultimately kills him...and them...on "the day the music died." Remembering the Hall of Famer, Buddy Holly hits "Peggy Sue" and "That’ll Be the Day" to "Rave On."
