About Me
From the mind and heart of award winning comedian Slash Coleman come 30 characters who tell an expressive, touching, and very funny story of one young man's struggle to come to terms with the death of his best college friend. The Neon Man and Me is a one-man-show written and performed by Virginia playwright Slash Coleman and tells of a twenty year friendship between two Radford University students. The “spiritual rock n’ roll comedy about best friends,” which received coverage from NPR and is due to become a PBS special, was awarded the Groucho Award for Best One Man Comedy of 2005. Coleman places a portion of all proceeds from the tour into an educational fund for his late friend’s son and so far has helped raise over $10,000 for non-profits in Virginia. Style Magazine says watching Coleman is like watching Woody Allen bounce on a trampoline on Mad TV.
