This production is a tribute to the late great Johnny Cash &
June Carter Cash's musical legacy.
Featuring Cash’s classic songs as well as his later works, the
characters of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash are portrayed
by international performers Doug Allen and Nicole Evans in
this multimedia theatrical show.
SESAC affiliated writer/publisher and Nashville recording
artist Doug Allen has performed in over eighty countries
around the world and has been the recipient of the United
States Department of Defense’s Certificate of Esteem Award
and the Certificate of Appreciation Award for his work
entertaining US military members around the world. He has
also received the Republic of Korea's Apple of Excellence
Award.
Mr. Allen, an avid Johnny Cash fan, was inspired to perform
Cash's music because of the open dialogue that Johnny
personally shared with him. Doug Allen captures the physical
appearance, vocals, speech, mannerisms and spirit of the
immortal Johnny Cash.
The strong chemistry and comedic interaction between
Johnny and June, combined with larger-than-life projected big
screen images, great vocals and "A-list" musicians, capture
the authentic Cash sound and make "American Icon: A Tribute to Johnny Cash" a must-see for everyone!
In addition to being an entertaining stage show, the
production is supported by original Cash-inspired
music, including the single "June," written by Doug
Allen and the legendary writer/producer, Jeff Silverman.
Jeff has collaborated with artists such as Rick Springfield,
Michael Peterson, Boyz II Men, David Cassidy, George
Clinton and Prince.
