You Can Help the SaxMan

It's a Cleveland story. The Sax Man tells the inspirational story of the life and legacy of the beloved and iconic street musician, Maurice Reedus, Jr. The son of a Grammy Award winning sax player, Maurice was once a rising star in his own right. But today, he barely makes ends meet as a humble busker, his audience no longer a stadium of tens-of-thousands, but rather the crowds exiting a stadium where they’ve come to see someone else perform. Now at 60 years of age, Maurice continues to play on, resigned to reflect on that time on the stage as his best years gone by. Yet as he longs to revisit those good old days just “one more time,” a surprise invitation to reunite with his old band gives The Sax Man one last chance to take the big stage – and the opportunity to show the people of his city the true musician Maurice Reedus Jr. really is…

At 7:00 p.m. on March 7, 2015 at the Atlas Lakeshore 7 in Euclid, see The Sax Man on the biggest movie screen in the Cleveland area for just $10 a person. This one time special event is being hosted by Atlas Cinemas as a fundraiser for the film to help get the documentary into distribution, and get Maurice's story out. Let's help filmmaker Joe Siebert reach his goal, and enjoy this amazing story together for one night only.
