Fresno sets itself in a traditional Irish-American bar, that explores the life of a young bartender named JJ, and the network of friends, bar regulars and found family that surround him.
It also tackles many issues faced by young people in society today such as: the cost of living crisis; alcoholism; and the affects of gentrification. It is based in Fresno, California but written with a distinctly Australian humour which undercuts the idealisations of the American Dream and reinforces the Aussie love for an underdog.
The music ‘has been written with a classic musical theatre feel, reminiscent of old school story driver songs rather than the clunky interludes shoehorned in that do little for the narrative’.
After a resounding success for it’s ‘In Concert’ development showing at The Butterfly Club in March 2024, Fresno is having its official debut at Chapel Off Chapel in February 2025.
Presented by J.M Harland & J. R Connell
