Louis Voler wants his dad, Mike, out of his life – which is difficult as Mike’s just got them sent to jail. Can Louis navigate life inside without his old man to guide him? Can Mike win back his son’s affection before it’s too late? Maybe the REAL prison…was the one they got sent to for that crime.
Award-winning comedy duo The Awkward Silence present their dynamic father and son prison musical. Resentment. Redemption. Songs. Diamonds. Escape? Lovely.
Directed by award-winning Julian Spooner and with songs by Henry Carpenter of The Quentin Dentin Show, The Awkward Silence’s Big Break will have you banging your bars and rattling your chains.
