SUMMARY:Reckless Son
DESCRIPTION:Reckless Son\, written and performed by singer songwriter Matt Butler\, was inspired by his journey performing over 100 concerts in jails and prisons across the country. Through a powerful combination of spoken word and song\, Reckless Son humanizes the experience of the incarcerated by giving them voice and telling their stories. Turning a compassionate eye to their lives before\, during and after their time behind prison walls\, the performance evokes empathy and understanding for those who are all too often considered out of sight and out of mind. It’s a story of hope\, forgiveness\, and what it means to discover a deeper sense of purpose through service to others. Raising awareness\, shifting perspectives\, and empowering individuals to create change within their communities\, Reckless Son is more than just a show\, it’s a calling. \nReckless Son was developed in part by the HB Studio Artist Residency program and was workshopped in Oregon State Penitentiary\, The Theater Workshop at Otisville State Prison\, and the Chesterfield County Jail. \nImportant Seating Update  \nTo create a more intimate and immersive experience\, the Reckless Son performance will now be held on stage\, with audience seating arranged in a unique\, close-up setting. \nSeating will be General Admission\, allowing guests to choose their own seats upon arrival.
