About
In this thrilling, dark theatrical performance, NZ actor David Goldthorpe explores both the haunting, unforgettable music that made jazz legend Chet Baker famous and the visceral, self-destruction that made him infamous. He takes the audience on a gripping ride through the highs and lows of Baker’s life, interspersing the dialogue with expertly arranged Baker classics played live with a full three piece jazz band.
After extensive touring of NZ, Australia and the UK this exceptional work brings an American story back to America, from the lips of a multi-talented NZ performer.
