The Man in Black at Rainbow Stage until July 15!
RING OF FIRE is a raucous celebration of the music, spirit and life of legendary singer-songwriter Johnny Cash. Our cast of eight wonderfully versatile actor/musicians will each "walk the line," taking turns portraying Cash and bringing his music back to life.
RING OF FIRE offers a rare glimpse at the life and times of the man you thought you knew and provides fascinating insight into the man, the myth, the legend. Described by the New York Times as a show that "follows a sort of ages-of-man path from green country-boy idealism into the sloughs of a hard-living musician's disillusionment and on up to the mountains of spiritual redemption..." RING OF FIRE is sure to move and entertain you!
