1999

One of the biggest hits in the Walnut's history was Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story in 1999. The production, a musical celebration of the legendary singer/songwriter who shot to stardom in 1957 only to die in a plane crash two years later, featured Christopher Sutton (right) as Buddy Holly, shown here with actor Tif Luckenbill. Sutton has also appeared in Walnut productions of Blood Brothers, Singin' in the Rain, and Finian's Rainbow.
