THE HEADLINERS OPENS TO RAVE REVIEWS!
"When the final blackout signaled the abrupt but satisfying end of The Headliners on its sold-out opening night at Cherry Creek Theatre, the audience was already well aware we’d seen something pretty special. It’s an overused word, but “triumph” is an altogether appropriate descriptor for the world premiere of Colorado playwright Jeffrey Neuman’s fictionalized version of a real-life stunt wedding a century ago." -- OnStage Colorado
The World Premiere of The Headliners plays at Denver's Cherry Creek Theatre May 5-21. Tickets available at cherrycreektheatre.org. To read the full Opening Night review of the show from OnStage Colorado, please click the image below.

A Year of Premieres!
I don’t know how on earth I got so lucky, but I’ve been gifted the opportunity to premiere three new plays in my beautiful home state of Colorado this year. Three! From a vaudeville stage in New York (THE HEADLINERS) to a jaunt through time on a historical Colorado property (PRIDE OF THE FARM) to my very personal response to the Black Lives Matter movement (THE ROAD TO LETHE) — 3 wildly different plays presented by 3 amazingly different companies. I hope you’ll join me for the journeys.
The Headliners, Cherry Creek Theatre, May 5-21
Pride of the Farm, The Catamounts, May-June, Dates TBD
The Road to Lethe ,Benchmark Theatre, December 2-23
Thrilled to have my short play Delivered included in And Toto too Theatre Company’s Queer Reading Series — March 29, 7PM (Aurora, Colorado). It’s one of my most award-winning, yet seldom-produced pieces and tells the story of four people whose lives collide when they witness a strange and disturbing occurrence. Based on real events, Delivered is about the dangerous crossroads of homophobia and complacency.
