FPST Welcomes Back Patsy
Back by popular demand, Debra Berger and Pam L. Veis return to Fort Peck Summer Theatre in Always…Patsy Cline, completing the 2022 line up. A runaway hit from FPST’s 2015 season, the musical will perform for two weekends only, July 15–24.
Said FPST artistic director Andy Meyers: “Based on a true story about Patsy’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger, the musical is full of down-home country humor, true emotion and even some audience participation. It includes over 2 dozen of Patsy’s greatest hits, including ‘Crazy’, ‘I Fall to Pieces’ and ‘Walking After Midnight.’” Reprising their iconic roles from the hit 2015 production, Glasgow native Debra Berger will star as Patsy Cline, with audience favorite Pam L. Veis as Louise. Luree Green-Chappell leads the onstage band, which also features Bergen Miller, Jon Svingen and the Saco Pippins: Chris, Chayten and Carter.
Heather Adams returns as director, recreating her extraordinary vision from the 2015 production. The rotating schedule continues. Remaining dates: Forever Plaid concludes July 2. The Complete History of America (Abridged) runs July 2, 3, and 9 and Bridges of Madison County runs July 1, 9 and 10. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., selected Saturday 2 p.m. matinees and Sundays at 4 p.m. For tickets go to www. fortpecktheatre.org or call 406-228-9216.
