The 'Woodies' are back with the foot-stompin', roof-raisin', toe-tappin' heart-breakin', soul-soarin' musical journey of Woody Guthrie down highways, rail lines and back roads straight into thte heart of America. An exuberant musical celebration of Ameria, "Woody Guthrie's American Song" tells the life of the rambling folk singer through his words and music. From the dust storms of Texas to the promised land of California to the streets of New York City, Guthrie spins the tale of the land that 'was made for you and me'.
"This Land is your Land", "Bound for Glory" and "Hard Travelin" are a few of the more than 2 dozen songs performed by 10 of our region's finest actors, singers and musicians. This evening of homespun wisdom, gentle humor and majestic music will have you leaving the theater with not only a song in your heart, but refreshed and invigorated with Guthrie's own sense of tolerance and optimism.
