kef theatrical productions has announced 3 Choices Away…, a benefit concert for the fall production of METHTACULAR!

METHTACULAR!, slated to perform in NYC August 30th – September 23rd at the Playroom Theatre, recently ran in the Cincinnati Fringe Festival where the shown won critical acclaim (including a CityBeat.com Fringe recommendation) and both the Artist Pick of the Fringe Award and the League of Cincinnati Theaters Award for Outstanding Solo Performance. METHTACULAR! is written and performed by Steven Strafford (SPAMALOT) and directed by AdamFitzgerald (Artistic Director, kef theatrical productions). Through wildly outrageous anecdotes and hilarious song stylings, METHTACULAR! is Steven Strafford’s hilarious and harrowing account of his life as a crystal methamphetamine addict in Chicago. Told with humor, grace, panache and perhaps most importantly, with honesty and without fear, METHTACULAR! will make you laugh, cry and laugh again while being taken on a roller coaster ride of humanity.
