Why you should see this show…
“The man can sing, the man can play the guitar, the man can write a song.” – Detroit Free Press
“Well, mostly I act and whatever I did must have worked because I’m doing it more now than in any decade of my career which is not how they draw it up in Star School. In 1976, I drove to New York City to learn everything I didn’t know, achieving just enough success along the way to inch my way up the Serious Actor Ladder. As my career marched on, I appeared in over seventy films, numerous television shows, returned again and again to the theatre, and am currently riding a string of once in a lifetime roles in Newsroom, Godless, Looming Tower, The Comey Rule and a year long run on Broadway as Atticus Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird.
Much as I love acting, however, I don’t do it every day. The only thing I do every day, the only thing I want to do, the only thing I have to do, is play my acoustic guitar. Back in ’76, I bought a Guild D-40, tossed it into the backseat of a beat up Buick and chased a dream. I had no idea I was bringing along my best friend. The one I would need, the one I would turn to, the one I would rely on. And now, decades later, the one who knows what I’m all about.
Sometimes I’m asked if I’ll ever write a book and I always answer that I already have. It’s in my songs.” – Jeff Daniels
Jeff Daniels Bio
In 2012, the Martin Guitar Company began selling the OM Jeff Daniels Custom Artist Edition Guitar. He also narrated the award winning documentary, The Ballad Of The Dreadnought. “When I moved to New York City to chase acting as a career, what I didn’t plan on was being influenced by all the playwrights I would work with Off-Broadway. In particular, Lanford Wilson – who would later go on to win a Pulitzer Prize for his play TALLEY’S FOLLY – taught me so much about the writing process; the love/hate relationship one has with such a solitary pursuit, the endless rewriting, the search and struggle to find a way to say it better. In Hollywood, the joke is ask any actor what he really wants to do and he’ll say, ‘Direct.’ All I wanted to do was write. So I did. Forty years later, I still am.”
