Always...Patsy Cline
- Southwest Playhouse turns into the
Grand Ole Opry as Always ...Patsy Cline, takes the stage. Based on the life
of Patsy Cline, the woman who epitomized country music in the late ’50s
and ’60s, Always...Patsy Cline is a song-filled evening of breathtakingly
beautiful ballads, honky-tonk rave ups and an intimate and uplifting look at
the life of country music’s most beloved singer. The play focuses on the
unusual friendship Patsy shared with star-struck housewife Louise Seger.
Seger, and most of the nation, fell in love with Patsy's voice after seeing
her perform "Walkin' After Midnight" on Arthur Godfrey's Talent
Scouts in 1957. Seger followed Cline's career via radio and television and
finally met the singer at a Houston concert in 1961. The two became pen-pals
up until the 1963 plane crash that claimed Cline’s life. The play’s
title refers to the manner in which Cline would close each of her letters:
Love always ... Patsy Cline. Always ... Patsy Cline is an intimate look at
the woman behind the legend, an insider's story as only a true friend could
tell it. The show will feature a live band and more than 20 country
standards including Cline’s hits “I Fall to Pieces,” “Crazy,”
"Back in Baby's Arms" and “She's Got You.”
