Buddy Holly, a Legend Reborn, is performing in Redruth’s Regal Theatre on Friday, August14.

Winner of ITV’s Stars in Their Eyes for his Buddy Holly impersonation, Mark Robinson, is now touring the UK with his act that brings to live classic hits such as Peggy Sue, That’ll be the Day and Oh Boy.

Robinson has been praised for delivering authentic sounding rock ’n’ roll backed by a band ‘reminiscent of the Crickets in their fifties heyday.’

Show producer Michael Taylor says: “Buddy Holly, A Legend Reborn, features Marc Robinson clutching a Fender Stratocaster, sporting a pair of heavy-rimmed glasses and sounding exactly like Buddy in his heyday.”

Michael Taylor continues:

“This year marks the 55th anniversary of the day that Buddy Holly was lost to the world in an aeroplane crash along with Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. Buddy Holly – a Legend Reborn takes an all-new show on the road commemorating the “the day the music died”.
