Pain In My Asperger's

Actor/musician, Jeremy Ebenstein, through story and song, will take audiences through his humorous, inspiring, yet often heartbreaking story of living a life with Aspergers Syndrome. Pain In My Asperger's is playing at the Santa Monica Playhouse on July 23rd and August 13th, fresh off of a successful run in the Hollywood Fringe Festival. Here are some comments from festival attendees:

Jeremys story is one that needs to be told and everyone needs to hear. Great singing voice, good stage presence and excellent storytelling. Glad I went to see this show. B.R.

Such a moving piece. just loved it. riveted by his honesty and earnestness and sense of fun! H.H.

Very fun time. His life experience mirrored our own but in a way that is more extreme and funny. Go see it for the laughs and introspection. F.B.

Absolutely love this! This was gorgeous storytelling. I left sobbing with how touched I felt D.E.

an excellent, feeling, and engaging doorway into another way of being human R.J.

With eight original songs and compositions, Ebenstein chronicles his journey from childhood to adulthood, addressing universal issues like childhood bullying, hopeful romance, and overcoming depression, to his unique take on the struggles of everyday life, from relationships, to being able to hold down the simplest of jobs, yet always striving towards his dreams of being accepted and living a successful life.

Its a story of hope and love, not only for those labeled with Aspergers Syndrome, who need to overcome the additional challenges that Aspergers presents, but for all who have ever hoped and dreamed about making something of themselves.

The script for Pain in My Asperger's was developed by Jack Fry (Einstein!, They Call Me Mister Fry) in the Jack Fry Solo Workshops, with Debra Ehrhardt (Jamaica Farewell, Cock Tales) serving as producer and creative consultant.
