Review: BYE, BYE, BIRDIE at Kennedy Center
The latest entry into Kennedy Center’s Broadway Center Stage series is one that you don’t see produced professionally very often which is a good thing. The 1960 Charles Strouse/Lee Adams/Michael Stewart musical Bye, Bye, Birdie was at one point the most produced musical by high schools and community theatres but strangely it has had very few large-scale revivals. Roundabout Theatre Company’s production in 2009 marked the last time the show was seen on Broadway in a major production.

The show features 22 tap dancers, five band members, and a host, with an age range of performers from 7 to 28 and a collaboration with NIGHTBREAKERS, a band director Ashlyn Bolton has known for a decade, adds a layer of authenticity to the performance.
