The Buddy Holly Show is one of the most exciting shows to hit the Australian theatre circuit in years.
This year marks the 28th anniversary of Scot Robin’s performance as legendary rock n roll performer, Buddy Holly, for one show at The Blue Mountain Theatre and Hub on Saturday, March 16.
Robin played the lead role of Buddy Holly in the smash hit musical Buddy The Buddy Holly story and was cast by the West End theatre director from London, the first Australian to perform worldwide to be cast in the role. He has performed the role of Buddy Holly over 1,000 times and has received international acclaim for his portrayal.
During this dynamic two-hour production, Robin, together with his Crickets, will perform more than 30 Holly hits including: That'll Be The Day, Heartbeat, Think It Over, Peggy Sue, Raining In My Heart, Rave On, Maybe Baby, True Love Ways and, of course, Oh Boy.
The internationally acclaimed production mesmerises and excites audiences both visually and musically with its high energy performance, brilliant costumes and fantastic musicianship.
In September 2004 Scot performed in Buddy's home town of Lubbock Texas where he met with Buddy's family and widow Maria Elena Holly, who flew out to Australia to see him perform the role of her late husband at Her Majesty's Theatre, Melbourne, to celebrate Buddy Holly Week.
Buddy Holly was one of the greatest pioneers of rock and roll music in the 1950s, a career spanning only two short years that made a lasting impact on popular music and the world.
