A Chester favourite returns, in a concert paying tribute to the country legend behind Hey Good Lookin’, Your Cheatin’ Heart, and Lost Highway, Hank Williams.
Ryan Cook began performing as Hank Williams in 2009 when he performed consecutive sold-out weeks of the Maynard Collins play The Show He Never Gave in Sackville, New Brunswick. Having performed on some of the same stages as Hank Williams including the Ryman Auditorium and Ernest Tubb Midnight Jamboree in Nashville, TN, Ryan has also studied Hank Williams’ life through the biographical work of Colin Escott, Sneezy Waters, The Country Music Hall of Fame (TN), Hank Williams Boyhood Home & Museum (AL), and The Hank Williams Museum (Montgomery (AL).
“I feel like I’m watching Hank in his prime on a stage that he was no stranger to… I flew to Nova Scotia to experience the magic for myself, and wasn’t disappointed!”
– John Walker, Producer -Music City Roots
Cook and his band mates, the Drifting Cowboys, feature hits from the greatest country music star of all time, complete with embroidered suits, yodelling and a southern drawl. This show was a smash hit when it last played at the Playhouse, and we’re thrilled to welcome them back. Book your tickets soon, this show is bound to sell out!
