Always... Patsy Cline

Directed by Terri Hagar
A musical based on the true story of Patsy Cline’s friendship with Houston housewife Louise Seger. The two met in 1961 at a Houston honky tonk where Cline was playing. Fans who remember Cline while she was alive will have a chance to look back, while new fans will catch a glimpse of what seeing her was like, and what she meant to her original fans. Seger supplies a narrative while Cline floats in and out of the set singing tunes that made her famous – “Anytime,” “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “She’s Got You,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Crazy” – to name just a few.
Tickets $15 for all ages.
Note: This show is not included in the Season Ticket price.

Dana Harrison (Louise ) Dana is thrilled to make her debut with Greater Lewisville Community Theatre and to work with such a talented director, cast and crew! She was most recently seen as Clairee in Richardson Theatre Centre’s production of Steel Magnolias. She has also appeared at Garland Civic Theatre, Grapevine’s Runway Theatre, Richardson’s Repertory Company Theatre, Rover DramaWerks and Mesquite Community Theatre, so she obviously doesn’t mind the commute! Her favorite role was that of Honey Raye Futrelle in Dearly Beloved for which she was a nominee for a Column Award as Best Supporting Actress in 2008. When not onstage, she is scrambling to find full time employment, so do an actress a favor and hire her (she really is an awesome Administrative Assistant! Honest!). She thanks her family and friends for their unending support and encouragement and for their understanding of her crazy passion for this thing called theater (it does keep her off the streets!). Dana would like to humbly thank Terri for her confidence and her belief that she could bring justice to Louise’s story and to Sherry for being an incredible “Patsy.” "Love…Always!" |
