Thanks for your interest in our production of Bye Bye Birdie! We concluded our final performance on Sunday, May 21, 2023. Check back for updates on the 2023-2024 season!
The 2023 First Colonial High School Musical, featuring members of the theatre, chorus, band, and orchestra departments, is BYE BYE BIRDIE and has performances May 18-21!
BYE BYE BIRDIE is the classic 1960 musical that depicts rockstar Conrad Birdie's last few weeks before following his draft orders into combat. Music producer duo Albert and Rosie must find a way to capitalize on his popularity before this asset disappears, so they schedule a chance for Conrad to give "One Last Kiss" to an all-American teen fan from Sweet Apple, Ohio. The Sweet Apple teen in question, though, has just started going steady with her sweetheart - and he shows himself pretty quickly to be the jealous type. With a rock and roll score by Charles Strouse, the composer of ANNIE and ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN, this is sure to be an exciting closer to the year.
Tickets are available at the door and at our Online Box Office (SchoolCash Online / First Colonial High School).
