Told by a company of actor-musicians, don’t miss this award-winning tribute to one of the great innovators of American popular music! Follow Williams’ rise from humble beginnings on the Louisiana Hayride to triumphs on the Grand Ole Opry – and his eventual self-destruction at the age of twenty-nine. Along the way, audiences are treated to indelible songs like “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry,” “Move It on Over,” “Hey, Good Lookin’,” and many more!
“The best example of a musician’s bio put on stage that I’ve ever seen. Wonderful…delightful…marvelous!” -NEW YORK POST
