BYE BYE BIRDIE is one of the most captivating
musical shows of
our time. It is a satire done with the fondest affection,
and tells
the story of a rock and roll singer who is about to
be inducted
into the army. An English Teacher, What Did I Ever See
in Him?
Put on a Happy Face, One Boy, A Lot of Livin' to Do,
Kids, Rosie
and Spanish Rose are musical theatre classics. This
is the tops in imagination and good old fashion fun.

about hitting the wall and having to make a choice,
or take a stand, or turn around and go back.”
Jason Robert Brown (composer-lyricist of the recent
critical smash “Parade”) has the whole theatre
community talking about his blend of savvy showmanship
and exciting contemporary sound.

Directed by Leah Faulkner
Concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a
small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious
and touching—and, in the end, deeply revealing of
the strength and purposefulness which underlies the antic
banter of its characters.
"Harling has given his women sharp, funny dialogue…The
play builds to a conclusion that is deeply moving."
—NY DailyNews.
"…a skillfully crafted, lovingly evoked picture
of eccentricity in the small-town South…Robert Harling
is a new voice in the theatre and the qualities of STEEL
MAGNOLIAS suggest he may be an important one." —Drama-Logue.
"…suffused with humor and tinged withtragedy."
—NY Post.”
