6 Guitars

★  ★ ★ ★ ★ 


“Six Guitars is nothing short of a storytelling masterpiece. It will leave you laughing until you cry and lifting your jaw to its proper position."

– Edmonton Sun

Performed by Chase Padgett • Written by Chase Padgett and Jay Hopkins

6 Guitars is a pitch perfect blend of music, comedy, and characters. Just 1 performer portrays 6 unique guitar players each representing their own style of music.

Blues, Jazz, Rock, Classical, Folk & Country

The characters include:

• Wes Tankerfield, a snobbish jazz master

• Michael Marsh, a 19 year old rock prodigy

• Peter Winter-Jones, a sensitive folk musician

• Rupert Colt, a charming country songwriter

• Emmanuel Ortega, an eccentric classical wizard

• Tyrone Gibbons, a weary blues picking octogenarian

As each character shares the anecdotes and songs that define their relationship to music the audience is treated to breathtaking musicianship, beautiful storytelling, & top notch comedy. There are even audience interactive bits that tailor each performance to any given crowd. Since it premiered in 2010, 6 Guitars has been performed hundreds of times for tens of thousands of people across North America to roaring standing ovations. Its unique but universal message connects to any musician or music lover regardless of one's age, background, or favourite genre. This show truly has something for everyone.
