Overview
This hit Broadway musical, inspired by the life of Elvis Presley, spawned such crowd favorites as “Put on a Happy Face,” “Kids,” and “Bye Bye Birdie.” Teen heartthrob Conrad Birdie is on a final tour of the country before he goes off to war. Who will win the ultimate prize – his one last kiss? Maybe it will be Kim McAfee, the all-American teenage girl who runs his fan club! Maybe Conrad will give up the rock and roll life and stay in Sweet Apple. Maybe parents will finally understand their kids. One thing’s for certain – Birdie isn’t going bye-bye so easily!
