SIN AND SALVATION - The Story of Johnny Cash

ABOUT

SIN AND SALVATION – The Story of Johnny Cash is a dynamic staging of the highs and lows of Johnny Cash's life, delving into the character of one of the most charismatic and controversial artists in American music.

Cash fans will hear hits such as, I WALK THE LINE, RING OF FIRE, and GHOST RIDERS, but there is so much more to Johnny Cash, and all four performers in this show, deliver those foot-stomping hits, as well as the delicate – and occasionally comic - ballads that aim to delight Cash fans, and create new ones.

JAMIE JUPITER has loved the music and personality of Johnny Cash since he was a child. He has honed his performance as Cash over the years. There are few singers with a voice as suited to singing Johnny Cash songs as Jamie.

Here are some of our reviews.

In “Sin and Salvation” four stellar musicians come together to tell the story of Johnny Cash in an illuminating and highly entertaining piece of immersive musical theatre. With Jamie Jupiter literally inhabiting the soul and persona of Johnny Cash, and the other cast members – Jonny Blundell, Sarah McArthur and Daniel Franks – cleverly occupying the roles of various other influential people in Cash’s journey. You will see how some of the forces that shaped the “Man in Black” came about in a life that knew it all: tragedy, heartache, addiction, religion, true love, achievement, recognition, and illness. Marian Oliver

Finely crafted musical theatre that succeeds in entertaining and inspiring. Soulful performances from a talented cast. Attention to often-overlooked details add an original dimension to this telling of the Johnny Cash story. Worth seeing a second time. Casper Malherbe (5 Stars)
