Producer Bill Hanney brings “Always…Patsy Cline” back to the Theatre By The Sea after 22 years, and it is still as entertaining as ever.

The two-character musical tribute to the first female country singer to be elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame, “Always…Patsy Cline” is a must-see for loyal country music fans. 

Cline ruled the country charts during her short career in the ’50s and ’60s.

Meagan Lewis-Michelson stars as Patsy Cline, her big, brassy voice filling the barn theatre with over 20 songs, including classics “Crazy,” “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “I Fall to Pieces” and “Sweet Dreams.”

Her true story is told by Louise Seger (Mary Callanan), a devoted fan since hearing her singing on Arthur Godfrey’s radio show in 1957.

Louise befriends Patsy, serves as her unofficial manager and official best friend until Cline’s death in a plane crash at age 30.

Meagan Lewis-Michelson sounds and looks enough like Patsy Cline to make us believe it is the country icon in front of us. With very little dialogue, she tells her story through her songs.

This version of the musical leans more toward the happiness in her life as seen through the eyes of her devoted fan and friend.

Callanan hams it up to the delight of the audience, allowing Cline’s loneliness and troubled marriage to be reflected in her music.

The Bodacious Bobcats Band provides perfect accompaniment under the direction of Jacob Priddy.

Country music fans (and who isn’t these days) will get a full load of classic country music to last them all summer.

“Always…Patsy Cline” is at Matunuck’s Theatre By The Sea through June 21. For tickets, call 782-8587 or visit theatrebythesea.com.
