December 10th at 7: 30 pm ~Ted Vigil as John Denver: A John Denver Christmas
at the Calumet Theatre
A singer, songwriter and tribute artist, Vigil has been performing since age 10. In 2006 he went to Laughlin, NV to compete in Talent Quest involving 28 states, New Zealand, Australia and Canada taking first place. He then went on to win a Celebrity Look Alike contest.
Performing nationwide, last year Ted was awarded the Rising Legend Award by the National Traditional Country Music Association. He also performed with Steve Wiesberg, John Denver’s lead guitar player from the 70s, who is quoted as saying “A very strong physical resemblance… Uncanny!”
Denver was one of the world’s best-known and loved performers. His music spanned 4 decades and won numerous awards. Vigil brings John Denver back to life – this is no ordinary tribute artist – Vigil becomes John Denver – from the moment he walks on stage. The most heard comments after a show are “I can’t believe how much he looks and sounds like John Denver! It really took us back!” Ted will present a Christmas show giving a spot-on re-creation of your favorite John Denver hits mixed with traditional holiday favorites.
