Buddy’s Financial Woes

Buddy The Musical

The Adelaide and Perth seasons of the jukebox musical Buddy have a dark cloud over them, with the production apparently experiencing financial difficulties.

The musical opened at the Her Majesty’s Theatre in Adelaide last night and is due to open in Perth on October 13.

The show, which focuses on the life and career of music legend Buddy Holly, opened in Sydney in February to generally positive reviews. It went on to play in Brisbane and Melbourne.

According to Equity, the producers of the show have indicated that they are facing financial difficulties and may need to close the production early.

However, in meetings with Equity regarding the payment of outstanding wages and superannuation, producers have said they are working to find a solution.
