SUMMARY:HELL-BENT FOR LEATHER
DESCRIPTION:HELL-BENT FOR LEATHER \n(An Existential Crisis in C Minor): \nPerformed by Michael Pacas\, with Pianist\, Joel Baker \n(Mature Themes and Language / No Pearl Clutching) \nHELL-BENT FOR LEATHER isn’t a campy romp in choir robes and chaps—it’s a visceral excavation of growing up queer in the Southern Baptist church. Scripture as weapon. Music\, humor\, and leather as armor. Beneath the bawdy laughter lies a story of confronting shame\, surviving trauma\, and reclaiming queer identity with defiance\, wit\, and Sondheim. \nThis is exorcism meets celebration: proof that queer souls forged in fire can turn survival into art\, pain into play\, and silence into showtunes—finding divinity on our own damn terms. \nThe set list is a curated blend of Broadway and Off-Broadway classics and hidden gems\, alongside songs by theatre composers who also write beyond the stage (85%) – plus soul-stirring surprises from Eric Clapton and openly queer country-western singer/songwriter Adam Mac.
