The Buddy Holly Story charts Buddy Holly's rise to fame starting with his first record deal with Decca Records. After the release of Buddy's first hit That'll Be The Day , Buddy and his band rocket to fame and move to New York. This is where Buddy meets his wife Mariaa Elena Santiago, a Puerto Rican receptionist at his record publisher's office, who he marries after a courtship of five hours.

Next, Buddy and his band split and he finds himself pursuing a solo career. He embarks on the 'Winter Dance Party' tour in 1959 and amazes the crowds with brilliant performances until his tragic death in an air accident a few months later. Buddy Holly's life and career is an amazing and inspirational journey and The Buddy Holly Story celebrates the passion, excitement and fun of his music. A must-see for fans of Buddy Holly's music and theatre alike.
