BYE BYE BIRDIE - A Musical Comedy  June 25-28, 2026

Book by Michael Stewart ,Music by Charles Strouse , Lyrics by Lee Adams

A loving send-up of the 1950s, small-town America, teenagers, and rock & roll, Bye Bye Birdie remains as fresh and vibrant as ever. Teen heartthrob Conrad Birdie has been drafted, so he chooses All-American girl Kim MacAfee for a very public farewell kiss. Featuring a tuneful high-energy score, plenty of great parts for teens, and a hilarious script, Birdie continues to thrill audiences around the world.  BYE BYE BIRDIE is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Tams-Witmark LLC. At the Virginia Sommerville Sutton Theatre.
