ABOUT THE SHOW- 

Bye Bye Birdie is a timeless musical that captures the essence of teenage dreams, celebrity culture, and small-town charm. Set in the 1950s, the story follows rock 'n' roll heartthrob Conrad Birdie as he gets drafted into the army, leaving his adoring fans distraught. The show revolves around the uproar caused by Conrad's farewell performance and the chaos that ensues, including romantic entanglements and comedic misunderstandings. With catchy tunes, energetic dance numbers, and fun characters, Bye Bye Birdie offers a fantastic opportunity to dive into a nostalgic era of music and laughter, while also exploring themes of love, fame, and growing up.
