The Neon Man and Me

Acme Theater presents the New England premiere of Richmond, VA playwright and performer, Slash Coleman’s, award winning one man comedy, The Neon Man and Me. Called a “spiritual rock n’ roll comedy about best friends,” the production will take place during father’s day weekend.

The show honors neon artist, Mark Jamison of Roanoke, Virginia, who died last year after being blown into a power line as he was hanging a neon sign. A month after his death, his girlfriend discovered that she was pregnant. As an aside, Coleman has raised over $10,000 for non-profits and his friend’s son.
