Woody Sez is the award-winning, foot-stomping, heartfelt theatrical journey through the life of America’s greatest folk icon, Woody Guthrie. Weaving together Guthrie’s words and songs, Woody Sez paints an engaging portrait of this folk hero’s fascinating life. Featuring a talented cast of multi-instrumental musician/actors, this show brims with infectious enjoyment.
With such classic tunes as This Land is Your Land and Bound for Glory, it’s easy to see why Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash idolized Woody, and why his music continues to inspire some of today’s finest songwriters including Bruce Springsteen, Van Morrison and Billy Bragg.
The following video was taken at beginning of last year so the details don’t relate to the West End Show but it gives a great insight and you get to see and hear the cast most importantly.
Don’t miss the limited West End engagement of the show that has audiences and critics on both sides of the pond cheering. Don’t miss Woody Sez.
“There is nothing sweet about Woody, and there is nothing sweet about the songs he sings. But there is something more important for those willing to listen.”
—JOHN STEINBECK
