Kris Kristofferson at Wilbur Theater

Why see Kris Kristofferson?

Songwriter, Singer & Actor On tour Again

Kris Kristofferson has been a fixture of America's cultural landscape since the early 1970s. After leaving the army, Texas-born Kristofferson moved to Nashville to pursue his love of music in 1965, and soon became a prodigious songwriter, penning iconic tunes for the likes of Johnny Cash, Dave Dudley, and most notably, 'Me and Bobby McGee', which was a number one hit for Janis Joplin. From there his star as a recording artist in his own right was on the rise, as was his career in the movies, appearing in a string of classic flicks like Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore and A Star is Born.

A songwriter of rare perception and humanity, Kristofferson remains as vital a stage presence as ever, with one of music's great back catalogues to call upon. Catch him when he plays in , ,

Kris Kristofferson and The Strangers

Very nostalgic and memorable evening. The staging (particularly the lighting) could have been better, but the band and Kris did not disappoint. I saw him perform in Boulder (with Rita Coolidge) back in the '70s, so of course everyone has grown older! Amazed at his staying power at age 83. So happy I went! ... Read more

Wonderful night

I have seen Kris many times before, while his voice may not have been quite as strong, his performance was magical. The Strangers were a powerful backup and the entire performance was very cohesive and entertaining. Our seat were very good ( row hh left side) . All in all a fan pleasing event. ... Read more

Another magical night in Westbury. Kristofferson was as charismatic, as ever and the “Strangers” were the perfect backup band. The audience was ecstatic. It was a pleasure to share an evening with such a brilliant poet, musician, actor and philosopher....and inspiring human being. ... Read more
