The stage is arranged in a warm light that reminds one of the mood of a smokey, personal theater from decades past. Then Johnny Cash materializes before them, represented by Cliff Wright, as if called by the audience’s collective yearning.
Time seems to have folded as the first chords of popular tunes fill the room, taking the listeners back to the start of the 1960s. With his remarkable likeness to the teenage Cash, Cliff Wright captures the core of the venerable singer-songwriter in the height of his career. Every pluck of the guitar and every deep, resonant note he lets out are evidence of Cash’s ongoing legacy. But this is a trip through Cash’s spirit, a tale spun deftly over his ageless tunes, not just a reenactment. Wright’s deft performance carries the audience beyond simple imitation and into the raw intensity and great depth of Cash’s artistic sensibility.
From the smooth rhythms of “Folsom Prison Blues” to the haunting sorrow of “Hurt,” every song displays the same vigor and honesty that marked Cash’s performances.And as the evening unfolds, it is greatly clear that this is not only a celebration of his continuous ability to transcend time and inspire hearts and souls with his real honesty and raw passion, not only a tribute to a musical great.
