You would be crazy to miss Always... Patsy Cline at the Garden Theater in Winter Garden

Created and originally directed by Ted Swindley, Always...Patsy Cline is based on a true story.

Next up at the Garden Theater in Winter Garden is Always... Patsy Cline!

The show taking place select nights, from April 26 - May 19 is based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger, who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk in l961, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death.

Always…Patsy Cline is more than a tribute to the legendary country singer who died tragically at age 30 in a plane crash in 1963. The musical play, complete with down-home country humor, sincere emotion, and a heart-warming look at a special friendship, includes many of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Walking After Midnight”…27 songs in all.

The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline
