THE RED GUITAR Comes to Hollywood Fringe Festival
The Red Guitar draws on Forman's decades of experience as a formidable jazz guitarist and his considerable skill as a storyteller and teacher, producing a work that is greater than the sum of its dazzling parts.
What is The Red Guitar A story in and about jazz, The Red Guitar showcases Bruce Forman's genre-breaking inventiveness and his ability to improvise and create within a classical form. Enlisting the full power of the jazz idiom and integrating it with seasoned and provocative story-telling, he confronts the dilemma of artistic obsession face-to-face-by creating a work of art that simultaneously explores and demonstrates the hold that music has over its most ardent followers, the hold that poses itself as a life-or-death, must-be-solved-question: "The Red Guitar.
