John Denver revue in Cerritos
ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH IN CERRITOS
He was ahead of his time, but time has caught up with “unhip” John Denver. “He was a fantastic singer, a very good songwriter … a great showman who knew how to whip a crowd up,” says Randal Myler, director of “Almost Heaven: The Songs of John Denver,” a revue of about 25 songs Denver wrote and/or made famous. “He was also a man of the world, globally thinking, fighting for the ecology when it wasn’t hip to do so.” Pictured Benjamin Zep Misek, left, Ryan Nearhoff and Michael Bojtos. 3 p.m. Sun., Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts, 12700 Center Court Drive. $21-$45. (562) 467-8818; www.cerritos
