Actors Theatre of Indiana (ATI) kicks off their 2024-2025 Season on Sept. 13 with Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash. Celebrate the iconic Johnny Cash in this unique musical about love and faith, struggle and success, rowdiness and redemption, and the healing power of home and family.
Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash was created by Richard Maltby, Jr. and conceived by William Meade. It was adapted from the Broadway Production by Richard Maltby, Jr. and Jason Edwards. Orchestrations by Steven Bishop and Jeff Lisenby with additional arrangements by David Abbinanti.
Ring of Fire runs Sept. 13 to 29 and traces the life of the Man in Black – whose razor-sharp vocals and stripped-down country sound helped shape the American rock ‘n’ roll landscape in the 20th century.
The musical follows Cash’s early life in the cotton fields of Arkansas and moves to Memphis as he launches his music career, hits it big and marries the love of his life, June Carter.
Five actor-musicians deliver crowd-pleasing renditions of Cash’s musical catalog, from country rock ‘n’ roll to searing ballads of love and faith, including “I Walk the Line,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “I’ve Been Everywhere,” and, of course, “Ring of Fire.”
A toe-tapping, soul-stirring musical biography like never before. This show promises to be a foot-stompin’, crowd-pleasin’ salute to a musical legend.
