'Encore' musical pays tribute to musical legacy of Johnny Cash

   Northwest’s Encore performing arts series will present the musical review “Ring of Fire” featuring the music of Johnny Cash at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 11, in the Performing Arts Center. Call 660.562.1212 for tickets, or go to www.nwmissouri.edu/tickets.
   Cash, who died in 2003, is one of country music’s most legendary performers. He remains one of only three performers inducted into both the Rock and Roll and Country halls of fame, the other two being Elvis Presley and Hank Williams Sr.
   “Ring of Fire’s” cast of multi-talented performer/musicians recreates Cash’s world of heartache, loss, faith, love and redemption through 38 legendary songs, including “A Thing Called Love,” “Five Feet High and Rising,” “Daddy Sang Bass,” “Ring of Fire,” “I Walk the Line,” “I’ve Been Everywhere,” “The Man in Black” and his final hit, “Hurt.” MORE
