"The 27 Club" presented by the Six String Society brings to life the legendary music & stories of Rock & Roll’s most infamous club. A club in which all the members share at least one thing in common; they all died tragically at the age of 27. People have wondered if they were ever all together and with the power of the audience’s imagination this occurs one evening in a mythical Greenwich Village apartment (circa 1969) the night before Woodstock. The candles burn late into the evening as these iconic figures begin to descend into the ‘Living Room.’ As the evening progresses, each icon performs their timeless songs with our signature group jam for the ages. Our All Star cast includes Whitney Shay (as Amy Winehouse), Lauren Leigh Martin (as Janis Joplin), Trevor James (as Jimi Hendrix), Tony Suraci (as Jim Morrison), Austin David (as Kurt Cobain), & Robin Henkel (as the spirit of Robert Johnson.) Additionally, this production will feature BMA (Blues Music Awards) winner Ms. Laura Chavez on guitar. After making its debut at the legendary Belly Up Tavern on July 10th, 2016,"The 27 Club" production has consistently sold out performances in performing art centers, prominent music venues, Nevada casinos & music festivals. So come see this magical production come to life at the Center Theater on June 27. We will leave the light on for U! Six String Society on Facebook / Instagram
