Don’t miss this!

I am always wary of original, amateur musicals as there are so many difficult components that must come together to make something great (lyrics, vocal talent, the score). All of these components in Chum hit the mark. Additionally, I thought the acting and storytelling was exceptional as well. My one critique was the pacing was a little quick, but I think that is the nature of a production like this. For someone looking for a musical, I would highly recommend this show due to all the components above being spot on that I mentioned as as well as the sheer volume of music that is squeezed into this 50 minute production, however, I think anyone would appreciate and enjoy this show (with the exception of maybe small children as this is an adult production).
