In this production, Six Miles to Nellie lead singer, Courtney DeCosky, transforms into Patsy Cline for an evening of music to celebrate a country music legend, backed by the Nellie band and special guests. Patsy shares her memories of the songs she recorded and their connections to her family and life. With special host, Minnie Pearl, and an opening act from the Bonafides, this step back in time is a delightful tribute to Patsy’s memorable legacy. Proceeds from this event are going to support The Winter Sanctuary and is hosted by The Woodward Opera House. Working together as a community to support those in need is what we are all about. Join us for an amazing concert in support of a wonderful agency!
