Spring Street International School shares a sneak peek to their play “Tumbleweed People in No Mans Land…”
Come and hear us wish Woody Guthrie a happy 101 years
Says Lucy Ramirez, played by Stormy Hildreth:
“I was raised up by my grandpa and he knew how to laugh his way through anything at all. He had music coming straight out his soul. His fingers could coax any tune in the world out of a guitar and his voice was god-given. The birds came to him when he sang. He was a good man and this here is the second thing he loved, right after me.”

Says Woody:
“I am out to sing songs that will prove to you that this is your world and that if it has hit you pretty hard and knocked you for a dozen loops, no matter what color, what size you are, how you are built, it’s still your world. I am out to sing the songs that make you take pride in yourself and in your work. And the songs that I sing are made up for the most part by all sorts of folks just about like you.”
Hope to see you at the show!
