Chuck Alvarez "Our World - Music and Courage"
2016-10-21 20:00 | Alvas Showroom, 1417 W. Eighth Street, San Pedro, CA, 90732, United States
See Chuck like you’ve never seen him before in a one man inspirational play, called Our World 33.
Written by Larry Heimgartner and Chuck Alvarez, Our World 33 is part of a series of original plays by Heimgartner called The Our World Project. The plays deal with problems that young people are facing today…HIV, women’s rights, sexual identity and much more. The plays are informative, deep, and often life changing.
Recently a few plays in this series were written about INSPIRATION. Plays that inspire people to live their dreams. Larry wrote a play exclusively for Chuck where Chuck would star in a play about his own life. It’s a blend of original music and performance art. The play deals with issues he has faced to live the dream of doing what he loves. It also touches upon issues of choices, focus and determination; failures and successes.
It is heartfelt, mindful and moving. Chuck’s audience will see another side to him that they’ve never seen. He will be touring this play in the UK.
The 40 minute play will be followed by a discussion and intermission followed by a fun, high quality, acoustic concert.
