Synopsis
Tammy Wynette – the woman behind the legend and the incredible songs that made her the First Lady of country music – leaps off the stage and into your heart.
Through her eyes, the audience relives her journey from the cotton fields of Itawamba, Mississippi, to international superstar.
With comic flare and dramatic impact, Stand by Your Man recounts triumphs and tragedies and explores Tammy’s relationships with the five husbands she stood by.
Among the twenty-six songs are “D-I-V-O-R-C-E,” “’Til I Can Make It on My Own,” and “Golden Ring.”
Press Reviews
"Humor perfectly peppers the tragedy and triumph. But ultimately, the show's heart and honesty are what bring it to life [...] Miraculously, it squeezes a host of songs into the story without cluttering the proceedings."
— Fort Worth Star-Telegram
