Woody Guthrie's American Song

Theater Alliance presents an outdoor summer 2026 production of *Woody Guthrie's American Song*, a musical that weaves Guthrie's storytelling with scenes drawn directly from his life, wielding music as a loudspeaker for the voice of the working people and speaking up for those swept aside by economic collapse and political indifference. Conceived and adapted by Peter Glazer, with orchestrations and vocal arrangements by Jeff Waxman, the show brings together a selection of Guthrie's most iconic songs and narratives in a theatrical format that honors his legacy as a folk troubadour and activist.
