Laughed So Hard I Cried

Surreal and Self-Introspective

It’s not every day you meet someone from a town with no name, but 100% UnTrueBador is your chance to truly immerse yourself in the unreal. Written by Paul Strickland, this musical comedy places the audience into a surreal world of wool and soup, listening as themselves as Strickland tells tales of his elusive home town. Through his fantastic vocals and intensely playful guitar, you are guided step by step, story after story, as the unintelligible world of 100% UnTrueBador is translated and brought into your reality. Despite all of its self-contained whimsy, Strickland’s creation ultimately culminates into themes completely grounded in the strife of reality. Community, self expression, and grief all play major roles in the show’s various fables and songs, ideas that can then be applied to nearly anyone’s life. Alongside the fantastic comedy, this show is a fantastic watch for anyone who loves knowing the unknowable and understanding that which was not meant to be understood, so if that sounds like a good time, sign yourself up for 100% UnTrueBador.
