Western Canada Theatre is proud to present Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash, February 23 to March 4, at Sagebrush Theatre. Ring of Fire celebrates the Man in Black's legacy in a performance that is the best of biography, concert, and traditional musical. As described by Director Mark du Mez, "The beauty of Johnny Cash is he let us hear many strands of a growing nation finding its groove. He was a wild gentleman, a rustic poet, a saved sinner and an American music hero with a genre-busting sound that still 'kicks-it' today.” “I Walk the Line,” “A Boy Named Sue,” “Folsom Prison Blues”— more than 30 legendary Cash tunes are part of this jam-packed evening of music, conceived by William Meade, created by Richard Maltby and adapted from the Broadway Production by Richard Maltby, Jr. and Jason Edwards.
