FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: The Shadbolt Centre for the Arts presents "Woody Sed"

BURNABY, BC - Want to know what Woody Sed? Join us for this Jessie Award nominated play about the life and times of Woody Guthrie.  Starring Thomas Jones, in a tour de force performance, Woody Sed features 19 songs and offers a cascade of 25 colourful characters all bundled up in one true to life tale.

Woody Guthrie was a prolific and provocative writer, the father of the 1960's folk revival and, according to Billy Bragg, the first 'alternative' musician.

>From the dust bowl of Oklahoma to the towers of New York City and from Hobo Jungles to the Merchant Marine Woody Guthrie saw it and wrote about it. Woody Sed takes you there charting Guthrie's rise to fame and his struggle to escape a harsh and predestined fate.

"Woody Sed is pure magnificence." "... his performance is absolutely unforgettable."
- 5 stars - Tom Eremondi, Saskatoon Star Phoenix

"Jones is a natural storyteller who peoples his tales with vibrant portrayals of Guthrie and his friends, switching characters as smoothly as he changes chords on the guitar... the engaging Jones summons back the genial spirit of ol' Woody for one more concert."
- 5 stars MACLEAN, Edmonton Sun

Woody Sed is both the biography of a seminal American musician and an epic drama of Greek proportions. Woody wrote is as he saw it and Woody Sed reflects that by telling the story in his own words.

The Shadbolt Centre for the Arts has a seat saved for you all season long - be sure to take in some live theatre and "Expect the Unexpected"
