Stephen McCall is excited to make his NYC solo show debut at The Triad Theater, accompanied by singer-songwriter Chris Urquiaga (JChris). “Dig Deep”, is a story about his life struggling with adversity, bullying, Tourette syndrome, depression, and teen suicide.
In collaboration with JChris, a Latin pop virtuoso internationally recognized for his pop compositions, Stephen takes his audience in spoken word and song on a journey to motivate and engage while sharing how to take a mess in life and turn it into a message. Through tears, suspense, drama, and laughter, “Dig Deep” is guaranteed to empower you to never give up, dream big and turn your impossibles into reality.
