Boy Falls From The Sky
Written and performed by Jake Epstein
Directed by and developed with Robert McQueen
“★★★★. A ROUSING SHOWBIZ TELL-ALL!” – The Toronto Star
Jake Epstein’s been “that guy from Degrassi”, starred in the US National Tours of Spring Awakening and American Idiot, played Spider-Man on Broadway, and starred in the original production of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical. Not bad for a kid from Toronto who dreamed about performing on Broadway ever since he was a child. But the thing about dreams is, they don’t always go as planned. Through a series of entertaining and soul-baring stories and songs, Epstein shares the rejection, stage fright, and heartbreak behind a seemingly successful career in this showbiz tell-all. Boy Falls From The Sky is a must-see for anyone who’s ever chased their dreams.
