Drayton Entertainment’s newest production, A Closer Walk With Patsy Cline, on stage now through Dec. 21 at the historic St. Jacobs Schoolhouse Theatre, has a record-breaking history at the venue, with a five-month sold-out run 14 years ago.
“A Closer Walk With Patsy Cline is a hit the world over,” says artistic director Alex Mustakas. “When audiences enter the theatre, they are stepping back in time and across geography to a live radio broadcast. They truly feel like they are part of the show.”
Although her career was cut short, Cline’s musical legacy remains bright to this day.
Cline was not an overnight success; it took over 10 years in the professional music world for her star to finally rise. Her Greatest Hits album has sold over 9 million copies, and was in first place for over 200 weeks on Billboard’s “Top Country Albums.”
The singer’s memory is brought to life in this Schoolhouse production by Rebecca Poff, “whose vocal and emotional range closely mirror the legendary performer,” Drayton Entertainment officials state in a press release.
