CASH After Dark

“The Johnny Cash Tribute Show”


 Close your eyes and imagine the unique sound of Johnny Cash as if it were live and for the first time in 1960. Now is your chance to experience this great singer songwriter in real time.

 CASH After Dark tribute show, featuring Cliff Wright as Johnny Cash, is a frozen moment in the time of Johnny Cash according to show producer Kurt Brown, taking the audience on a “rollercoaster ride” in the life of the multi-dimensional artist. 

“The audience becomes enveloped in the music and forgets they are seeing an impersonation,” said Brown. “The story line is truly the music.” 

CASH After Dark isn’t intended to duplicate the singer’s life exactly. Instead, it is based on what he might have talked about, and the stories told through his songs. Wright strikes an uncanny resemblance to an early 60s Johnny Cash, portraying him at the height of his career—a slim, trim, energetic performer with a polished voice. 

 CASH After Dark tribute show portrays Cash authentically, capturing the essence of a singer whose appeal was timeless easily traversing the boundaries of age, ethnicity and musical genre. It treats even his later hits as the younger Cash would have interpreted them. For example, Cash’s last recorded song “Hurt,” is performed with the same energy and prowess of a young Cash.
