Take a family-friendly romp through the 1960s in Four County Players’ production of the mod musical Bye Bye Birdie. When teen heartthrob Conrad Birde is drafted into the Army, his agent plans to send him off in style with one last kiss from a lucky fan. Based on the legend of Elvis Presley’s draft controversy, the play showcases the early days of rock ‘n’ roll with classic Broadway hits like “A Lot of Livin’ to Do” and “Put On a Happy Face.”
Through 3/29. $8-16, times vary. Four County Players, 5256 Governor Barbour St., Barboursville. (540) 832-5355.
