PURE PRINE celebrates the music of John Prine. A Concert with 6 singer-musicians in a theatrical setting.
With Tim Brickley, Jenni Gregory, TIM GRIMM, Bobbie Lancaster, JAN LUCAS, Michael Shelton.
Below is a review from earlier this year-

"A tribute that transcends at the Phoenix,  
The Phoenix Theatre´s Bryan Fonseca transformed the songs of John Prine into a theatrical evening. (Photo courtesy Phoenix Theatre)

Prine is the sort of three-chord singer/songwriter beloved by fans and fellow musicians but little known to the rest of the world. Best known for "Angel from Montgomery," (notably covered by Bonnie Raitt, Dave Matthews and others), his songs go from the whimsical "Illegal Smile" to the mournful elegance of "One Red Rose" with plenty of unsentimental, realistic ground covered in between.

In "Pure Prine", the music seems to grow organically out of the characters and the environment. Fonseca finds a theatrical voice and structure for the show that doesn´t compromise the material, providing just enough dialogue-free plot to keep the show moving forward. And the timing beautifully allows the show to take advantage of the detailed bar-room set still standing from the previous Phoenix show "Yankee Tavern." Its specificity helps anchor the show. Prine writes the kinds of characters that are intimately familiar with the feeling of sitting on a bar stool too long.

Populating the bar are a couple (Tim Grimm and Jan Lucas-Grimm) whose affection for each other has clearly helped them weather more than a few storms. There´s a troubled guy (Michael Shelton) who can´t stay loyal to a feisty good girl (Bobbie Lancaster) and finds himself drawn to a barmaid (Jenni Gregory) as haunted as he is. And, of course, there´s a bartender (Tim Brickley) who has seen and heard it all.

It´s helpful that all involved are expert musicians. And that none tries to imitate Prine. Instead, they pay tribute by honoring the grace of the music and the richness of the characters, both in their humor and in their pain.
And I´m hoping that the most impressive world premiere theater production to come out of Indy in recent memory has a long life beyond this short run."

Below is a review from earlier this year-

"A tribute that transcends at the Phoenix,  
The Phoenix Theatre´s Bryan Fonseca transformed the songs of John Prine into a theatrical evening. (Photo courtesy Phoenix Theatre)

Prine is the sort of three-chord singer/songwriter beloved by fans and fellow musicians but little known to the rest of the world. Best known for "Angel from Montgomery," (notably covered by Bonnie Raitt, Dave Matthews and others), his songs go from the whimsical "Illegal Smile" to the mournful elegance of "One Red Rose" with plenty of unsentimental, realistic ground covered in between.

In "Pure Prine", the music seems to grow organically out of the characters and the environment. Fonseca finds a theatrical voice and structure for the show that doesn´t compromise the material, providing just enough dialogue-free plot to keep the show moving forward. And the timing beautifully allows the show to take advantage of the detailed bar-room set still standing from the previous Phoenix show "Yankee Tavern." Its specificity helps anchor the show. Prine writes the kinds of characters that are intimately familiar with the feeling of sitting on a bar stool too long.

Populating the bar are a couple (Tim Grimm and Jan Lucas-Grimm) whose affection for each other has clearly helped them weather more than a few storms. There´s a troubled guy (Michael Shelton) who can´t stay loyal to a feisty good girl (Bobbie Lancaster) and finds himself drawn to a barmaid (Jenni Gregory) as haunted as he is. And, of course, there´s a bartender (Tim Brickley) who has seen and heard it all.

It´s helpful that all involved are expert musicians. And that none tries to imitate Prine. Instead, they pay tribute by honoring the grace of the music and the richness of the characters, both in their humor and in their pain.
And I´m hoping that the most impressive world premiere theater production to come out of Indy in recent memory has a long life beyond this short run."
