Playhouse In The Park Spotlights The Life Of "Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story"

Provided
Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story

The life of iconic 50's rocker Buddy Holly is coming to Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park starting January 18.

The star and music director of Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story, Andy Christopher, joins Brian O'Donnell for a conversation about the music, the meteoric rise, and untimely death of the man behind "That'll Be the Day," and "Peggy Sue."

Brian O’Donnell has been sharing his love of music on the radio since the early 1970’s. He is a true public radio renaissance man hosting classical music on 90.9 WGUC weekday mornings; contributing music and arts features for 91.7 WVXU’s Around Cincinnati program; and hosting Saturday Morning with Brian O’D on WNKU. Musicians, artists and community arts leaders regularly stop by to record interviews with Brian— from Jaime Laredo with the Linton Music Series, or J.R. Cassidy from the Northern Kentucky Symphony, to a curator of an exhibit at The Cincinnati Art Museum, or a soloist in town to perform with the CSO, his relaxed style puts everyone at ease and lets their story come through.
