Patrick Burns Brings FROM FOSTER CARE TO FABULOUS to New Helvetia Theatre This Weekend
Patrick Burns will bring his one man show FROM FOSTER CARE TO FABULOUS to the New Helvetia Theatre in Sacramento tonight and tomorrow, August 30 and 31, produced by Graham-A-Rama.
"It's all truth," Burns explains as he describes From Foster Care to Fabulous, his one-man autobiographical musical extravaganza that chronicles his teenage years in and out of foster care. "Sometimes the truth is horrifying; sometimes it's hilarious. But it's never cliché. It's never preachy. It's just the truth." Between the ages of 14 and 17, Patrick Burns lived with four foster families in Oakland, CA. His self-written, self-performed musical details this experience featuring a myriad of songs (both well-known and original), a plethora of jaw-dropping and side-splitting anecdotes, and a bizarre cast of horrific, hilarious, and ultimately heartbreaking characters.This show is an unforgettable night of original, boundary-pushing theater!
