THEATER REVIEW: “Always, Patsy Cline”

By Joann Varnell on May 5, 2011

ONE OF TACOMA LITTLE THEATRE'S BEST PRODUCTIONS OF THE YEAR >>>

Always, Patsy Cline is a musical for people that love music but are not particularly fond of musicals. It's more like a concert with a play interspersed between the songs. The story is about the beginning of the six-year friendship between country star Patsy Cline and Louise Seger.

Walking into Tacoma Little Theatre's auditorium for Always, Patsy Cline, the first thing the audience notices is a five-piece country-and-western band, the Bodacious Bobcats, dressed in matching garb.
