ABOUT THE SHOW
The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Pelkey
by James Lecesne
One actor portrays every character in a small Jersey Shore town as he unravels the story of Leonard Pelkey, a tenaciously optimistic and flamboyant fourteen-year-old boy who goes missing. A luminous force of nature whose magic is only truly felt once he is gone, Leonard becomes an unexpected inspiration as the town’s citizens question how they live, who they love, and what they leave behind.
“Shines with humanity…an affecting and entertaining testament to the beauty of a world in which difference is celebrated rather than denigrated” – Los Angeles Times
“A NYT Critics Pick” “Leaves you beaming with joy…a superlative solo show”
