Event Description

“GOLD MEDAL! Ebenstein’s show is as entertaining as he is engaging!” the TVolution

Through story and song, actor/musician Jeremy Ebenstein shares an inside look at the humorous, inspiring, yet often heartbreaking story of living a life with Asperger's Syndrome. 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. He offers 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.

Pain In My Asperger's is a story of optimism and love, not only for those suffering with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) who need to overcome the additional challenges that Asperger's presents, but for all who have ever hoped and dreamed of making something of themselves.

Jeremy started playing piano at age 29. Music, a skill unaffected by his condition, inspired him to tell his story about the trials and tribulations of living with Asperger's Syndrome, a developmental disorder affecting the ability to effectively socialize, learn, and communicate. The piece was developed with Jack Fry (Einstein!, They Call Me Mister Fry), in the Jack Fry Solo Workshops, in collaboration with Debra Ehrhardt (Jamaica Farewell, Cocktales) as creative consultant.

Santa Monica Playhouse programs are support in part by generous grants from the We Are Santa Monica Fund, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture, the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, and Playhouse PALS.
