Oakengates Theatre @ The Place welcomes back the Johnny Cash Roadshow on Friday 15 April; the only to be endorsed by the Cash family.
The band features award winning Clive John as Johnny Cash, Jill Schoonjans as June Cater, Nick Davis – electric guitar and vocals, Martin Bentley – double bass and vocals and Darren Bazzoni – drums and vocals. This is simply the finest tribute in the world to the legend that is Johnny Cash.
The Johnny Cash Roadshow will perform material from throughout Cash’s carrer including ‘Walk the Line’ and ‘Folsom Prison Blues’, recorded with Sun Record in the 1950s to ‘Hurt’, Johnny Cash’s last release in 2002.
There are many stops in between bringing the audience all the favourites, ‘Man in Black’, ‘Boy Named Sue’ and ‘Ring of Fire’. The show also brings a focus on the duets Johnny and June sang, including ‘Jackson’.
From start to finish the band take the audience through the Johnny Cash live show experience. The chemistry of Johnny and June is also brought to the stage and with the accompanying video projection, which brings evocative images to each song, all help to complete the story of the life of a legend.
