Professor Paddy-Whack Coming to Ocean State Theatre, 2/7

By:

Rick Adam brings his zany one man vaudeville show, Professor Paddy-Whack's One Man Extravaganza of Songs & Silly Stuff to Ocean State Theatre in Warwick on Saturday, February 7, 2015.

Rick Adam, as Professor Paddy-Whack, is a one man cast of wacky characters sure to delight and amuse. He presents a continuous collage of energizing entertainment, including hand shadows, musical saw, juggling, magic, hat tricks, story songs and sing-a-longs, laugh riot comedy skits, marvelous object manipulation, and the most intricate and entertaining one man band you ever saw!

Rick Adam has been performing, teaching, and inspiring people of all ages for over 20 years. He has combined his extensive theatrical and musical experience to create original theatrical performances that both educate and entertain. He has toured widely, from elementary schools to colleges to maximum-security prisons, from Rhode Island to Russia. He has performed on stage (with Trinity Repertory Company) and has appeared in films and on television and radio. He has also performed for Bruce Springsteen at his home in New Jersey. Rick has shared venues with Garth Brooks, Phyllis Diller, Dick Cavett, and the rock band Phish. He was featured on a PBS special about one man bands, which is now in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institute.

Before and after the performance, families can enjoy drinks and snacks, which will be available for purchase at the theatre's lobby concession stand.

Professor Paddy-Whack's One Man Extravaganza of Songs & Silly Stuff will be presented on Saturday, February 7, 2015 at 11:00 am. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI. Single tickets are $10.00 each with packages of three Family Fun Fest shows or more for $8.00 per ticket. Discount rates are available for groups of 20 or more by calling (401) 921-1777 x112.
