Details

Candid Campfire!!!!! is an unpredictable, music-infused rollercoaster of storytelling, satire, and surreal reflection. With nothing but a guitar, a campfire, and a whole lot of baggage, the story leads us through tales of social media obsession, gambling addiction, polyamory, and the search for genuine human connection in a world gone algorithmic.
The story is a day in the life of Pete Still, a washed-up musician and failed influencer who hits rock bottom and survives a wild night in the desert, using technology he doesn’t understand, speaking to an audience that doesn’t want to listen. The campfire symbolizes his desire to keep a creative flame burning as the story moves from an optimistic sunrise, into the struggles of attracting an audience, getting cancelled, a sunset of despair, a cold lonely evening, finally ending on a hopeful sunrise. And lots of imaginary drinking, gun fighting, and a skunk hunt.
This is not your summer camp singalong. This is a campfire for the chronically online, the terminally nostalgic, and anyone trying to stay warm in the cold glow of the internet.
Featuring original songs, audience interaction, comedic sketches, and moments of raw emotional honesty, Candid Campfire!!!!! is part musical, part stand-up, part group therapy... and completely unforgettable.
