WOODY SEZ: THE LIFE & MUSIC OF WOODY GUTHRIE
Want to hear from Woody Sez?
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame calls Woody Guthrie
“the original folk hero;
a man who, in the Thirties and Forties, transformed the folk ballad into a vehicle for social protest and observation ... Fueled by a boundless curiosity about the world, the colorful life he led became as legendary as the songs he wrote.”
The international smash hit WOODY SEZ: THE LIFE & MUSIC OF WOODY GUTHRIE brings its unstoppable spirit and foot-stomping energy back to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for all four weeks in August, telling the vibrant, true story of a uniquely American hero whose radical influence and songs of defiance, hope and resilience continue to inspire today’s storytelling songwriters. Featuring “Bound For Glory”, “Pastures of Plenty”, “Vigilante Man”, “The Ballad of Tom Joad”, “Deportees”, “This Land Is Your Land” and many more, WOODY SEZ celebrates the man known as “America’s greatest ballad maker” — a rambling troubadour whose unforgettable words, timeless melodies and extraordinary life story define Resistance.
“As for Guthrie — with his uncondescending articulation of working-class woes and accessible, common-sense critiques of the privileged class — we sure could use a man like him right now.” — The New York Times
