A musical journey through the fascinating, defiant, wildly prolific life and all-too-relevant career of Woody Guthrie.
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame calls him “the original folk hero”, the man who turned the folk ballad into a vehicle for social protest. Now this award-winning show brings his story to London.
"A joyful, musically-dazzling portrait of Woody Guthrie brings the folk icon’s life, struggles and enduring protest songs vividly back to life."
