The Ballad Of Johnny And June celebrates American music icons Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash, and what makes two people stay together or come apart.
He changed country music. She changed him.
He was a small-town musician and storyteller with a voice that stirred the soul. She was the comedienne of the first family of country music. Together, their legendary love story has been idolized and mythologized, but would you really want a love that knocks you out that fast?
Told through the eyes of their son, John Carter Cash, and featuring over two dozen classic songs, including “I’ve Been Everywhere,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Jackson,” “I Walk the Line,” and many more.
Directed by two-time Tony Award® winner Des McAnuff (Jersey Boys, The Who’s Tommy), and produced by The Dodgers and Tommy Mottola, in co-operation with the John R. Cash and June Carter Cash Trusts.
