🖤This powerful retelling of Cash’s incredible journey features the talent of Jamie Jupiter as Johnny Cash, accompanied by seasoned musicians Sarah McArthur, Daniel Zachariah Franks and Jonny Blundell, all under the direction of theatre veteran Nigel Vermaas.
🎶 Between performing Cash’s greatest hits, this stellar cast weaves the tale of one of music’s most iconic, controversial and charismatic legends.
Earning rave reviews, this unforgettable performance is a must-see for theatre and music lovers alike.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "A really fabulous show. Wonderful weaving of Johnny’s story and excellent renditions of his music. Very moving and extremely enjoyable." – Karyn.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “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 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 which knew it all: tragedy, heartache, addiction, religion, true love, achievement and recognition, and illness.” – Marian Oliver
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "An entertaining and unusual production well executed." – Heidi.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Finely crafted musical theatre that succeeds in entertaining and inspiring. Soulful performances from a talented cast. Attention to often-overlooked detail adds an original dimension to this telling of the Johnny Cash story. Worth seeing a second time." – Casper Malherbe
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Brilliant show!! Saw this at Die Boer." – Lilly Faurie
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Great music & wonderful storytelling. Every member of the cast brought a strong performance in this really enjoyable tribute.” – Ann Coltham
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I was blown away by the new Johnny Cash show – such a moving, interesting and well constructed piece of musical theatre. I was completely engrossed the whole way through.” – Julie Catto
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “What makes a show like this work is a believable delivery of the songs, and Jamie (Jupiter) did an excellent job (as Johnny Cash) – he really inhabits those songs… The stories they tell and Jamie’s delivery is entirely believable. I was most impressed.” – Willem Moller
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I wasn’t a Johnny Cash fan, but I appreciate him now. His vulnerabilities and massive talent will linger for me after being in the audience, and I’m so glad I went.” – Ann Coltham
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “The musicians played and sang beautifully, and the acting was great! I was so interested to learn about Johnny Cash's life, and what an amazing person he was. Beautifully put together on all levels!” – Julie Catto
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I truly don’t like tribute shows, so at first I wasn’t keen on going to Sin & Salvation at Café Roux. But oh boy am I glad that I did! This is NOT another clichéd ‘tribute show’; it’s a gripping retelling of Johnny Cash’s life performed by four incredibly talented local musicians. If the show comes to a venue near you, do yourself a favour and book tickets straight away!” – Melanie Commeignes
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “In Sin and Salvation you’ll hear brilliant renditions of your favourite Johnny Cash songs, whether originals or covers he was well-known for, and you’ll marvel at the versatility and instrumental mastery of the musician-storyteller-actors who’ll have your attention imprisoned throughout the production.” – Marian Oliver
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Wow, this show gave me all the feels. I absolutely loved every minute of it.” – Paula Cockburn
