“Ballad of Chet” was an original play with music produced by Fresno City College. This play concerns a devious accountant, the mafia, and Satan (who has ambitions on being a Vegas singer). The production concept is that of the devil’s Vegas lounge act.
“Christopher Boltz’s lighting and scenic design is really fine. (I love the slot-machine lighting style he uses to tell us we’re at a Denny’s or a 7-Eleven.) ” – Donald Monro, Fresno City College
