Jew of Oklahoma (USA) Mark Rubin November 6 | 7pm Norman & Annette Rothstein Theatre

Oklahoma-born, Texas-reared, and now living in New Orleans, multi- instrumentalist Mark Rubin is an unabashed Southern Jew, known equally for his muscular musicianship and larger-than-life persona, evoking Woody Guthrie and Will Rodgers. Over an accomplished 40+ year career, he has accompanied or produced a virtual who’s-who of American traditional music, while straddling numerous musical genres including country, Western swing, bluegrass, Cajun, Tex-Mex, polka, klezmer, Roma, and more. In his solo show, Jew of Oklahoma, story and song take centre stage, offering Southern Americana from a Jewish, socially conscious point of view.
