Posted

Get ready to swoon, sing and shake things up — Birdie’s back in town.

The Sugar Creek Players will bring the classic musical Bye Bye Birdie to life at the Vanity Theater for two weekends this summer. The cast features several long time Vanity favorites, as well as some new amazing faces.

Directed by Katie Melvin, with Kim Woosley producing, Jennifer Peacock as musical director, and Chelsea Galloway choreographing, this fun-filled show is packed with energy, humor, and favorite songs like “Put on a Happy Face.”

Set in the 1950s, the story follows teen idol Conrad Birdie’s farewell performance and the chaos that follows in Sweet Apple, Ohio.

Performances are 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday as well as 7 p.m. Aug. 1-2 and 2:30 p.m. Aug. 3 at the local downtown theater, 122 S. Washington St.

Tickets available at online at www.sugarcreekplayers.org.
