Winter Dance Party SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2024 | 7:00 PM TICKETS* 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. 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 and Linwood Sasser fills the legendary footsteps of the Big Bopper. Ray Anthony performs as Ritchie Valens and is a renowned star of the "Legends of Rock and Roll" show at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas. The very authentic and energetic four-piece band (guitar, drums, stand-up bass, and sax) includes Grammy award-winning Mike Acosta on saxophone. "Flawless….rings as clear and true as a chord from a Fender Stratocaster." -The Chicago Tribune "John Mueller(as Buddy Holly) gives a stunning portrayal.
