What? You didn't know that Bye Bye Birdie was coming back to Broadway? Well it's true. The Tony Award winning Roundabout Theatre Company is bringing back this beloved musical back to Broadway for the first time since the original 1960 production. I first heard of the show in eighth grade when I auditioned for the local high school production of Bye Birdie back in 1987. God I feel old. I nailed the audition and walked away with the role of Randolph MacAfee the obnoxious little brother of Kim MacAfee and son to the Ed Sullivan loving Harry MacAfee. It was my first show and after that I was hooked. I guess that's why I moved to New York 18 years ago to work in the theatre. Anyway back to the Broadway revival of Bye Bye Birdie. Previews are set to begin at the brand new Henry Miller's Theatre on September 10. The theatre is new but they kept the name along with it's original facade. The show has an all star cast including John Stamos, Gina Gershon, and Bill Irwin. Roundabout is well know for their revivals over the years so I hope this one is good. I can't wait to see it. Call Applause now to get your tickets to see Bye Bye Birdie on Broadway. If this doesn't make you put on a happy face then nothing will.
