June Carter Cash : The Woman, Her Music and Me

A National Theatre of Scotland and Grid Iron co-production. Music Director, Composer and Sound Designer Pippa Murphy

Part of MadeInScotlandShowcase.com Winner of Scotsman's Fringe First 2024

The story of one of country music’s most iconic voices: June Carter Cash.

In this raw yet uplifting show, Charlene Boyd gets to grips with a life less ordinary. More than a simple biography of June’s life and music, this play with songs sees Charlene explore her own relationship with her musical heroine and their shared experience as performers and working mothers.

A powerful, personal journey of discovery stretching across the Atlantic from the Appalachian Mountains to the Glasgow high-rise flats, their tale is one of empowerment, endurance and perseverance. Inspired by the setting of Nashville’s legendary Bluebird Café, come take a seat and listen to their story…

June Carter Cash : The Woman, Her Music and Me premiered at the 2024 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, before a tour of venues across Scotland. Touring to Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Banchory, Glasgow, Dunfermline, Kirkcudbright Fringe, Stranraer, Arran, Oban, Ullapool and Findhorn Festival
