About Stacie Burrows
Stacie Burrows performs this solo music show that charts her journey from a wealthy childhood in Houston, Texas, to the financial pressures of raising a family in Los Angeles. Growing up in eighties Houston she believed the riches were real — until the phone rang too often and the questions started. She adores her father despite every financial blunder he made, yet swore never to live the same way. Now deep in debt in a city where wealth is on display, she is trying to keep up with herself rather than the Joneses, staying true to the roots that matter. Running 60 minutes, suitable for ages 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A rare solo show that fuses music with honest, sharply observed storytelling about money, family mythology and the gap between the life we inherit and the life we build. Warm, funny and personally courageous.
