John Mueller's "Winter Dance Party"® is the official live and authentic
re-creation
of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper's final tour and the
only show
endorsed by the Holly, Valens and Richardson estates. Each live concert
performance includes over two hours of unbridled, high voltage
entertainment featuring all the hit songs of the 50's era: That'll Be The
Day, Peggy Sue, Oh, Boy, Rave on, La Bamba, Chantilly Lace, and many, many
more.
John Mueller, the critically acclaimed former star of the U.S. touring
version of
the London/Broadway hit musical "Buddy..the Buddy Holly Story," performs
as Buddy
Holly with Linwood Sasser as the Big Bopper and Ray Anthony as Ritchie
Valens. The
very authentic and energetic four piece band (guitar, drums, stand up bass
and sax)
includes Grammy award winning Mike Acosta on saxophone.
The Winter Dance Party show has performed in front of over 2 million
people on national TV for the Jerry Lewis Telethon, has toured extensively
throughout the United States and Canada at theatres, performing arts
centers, ballrooms, corporate events, casinos and even for the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame along with John Mellencamp, Marshall Crenshaw and
others.
It is the only show endorsed and honored by Buddy's widow Maria Elena
Holly.
