The Musical Commandments, and how to break them.

A show that will make you laugh and sob in the same breath, Chase Padgett’s “How to play the guitar poorly” is a heartfelt story about understanding yourself, and one story about finding that understanding through music. Padget’s quick-witted jabs at the growing pains of adolescence and the seamless transitions between monologues and musical interludes never loses the audience’s focus for a second. He tells the story of healthy masculinity and finding your purpose in the world, and sells it with gorgeous vocal talent that fills an auditorium. His presence on stage, his voice and his story is earnest and full-hearted.

This show is a must see for those wanting to start a heartfelt, musical journey of their own.
