The Last Concert of Patsy Cline

Country music icon, Patsy Cline, will be featured in an upcoming production that will showcase her final concert and her unfortunate passing only days after.  Premiering this fall at the Showplace Peterborough in Canada, director and producer Tim Rowat will tell the story through the eyes of one of Cline’s closest friends, Loretta Lynn. 

This world premiere event is sure to honor the great legacy of Patsy Cline who has received multiple awards since her tragic plane accident in 1963.  She received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1995 and was voted by fans to be the greatest woman in country music by Country Music Television.  Her music continues to influence many generations of singers.   

To hear where Patsy Cline’s career began, be sure to pick up The Birth of a Star available now on Lost Gold Records.  It features tracks recorded during the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scout Performances, where Godfrey helped Cline become a household name in the late 1950s.
