In September 2006 San Diego hosted the world premiere of
Primal Twang: The Legacy of the Guitar — the first definitive theatrical journey through the guitar’s colorful and surprisingly controversial 3500-year history. The story of the “instrument of the gods” was told through a combination of onstage narration, video projections of rare historical footage and electrifying live performances by world music legend,
Dan Crary and an all-star ensemble of international guitar greats, including Grammy-winners
Eric Johnson,
Albert Lee,
Andrew York,
Mason Williams and
Doc Watson. Together, in person, for the first time on any stage! The program debuted to enthusiastic sold-out audiences at San Diego’s palatial Birch North Park Theatre. Check out the website's
Photo Gallery for shots from the production. The performances were filmed by director Anthony Leigh Adams for
commercial release.
