Jeff Scott
COMPOSER

After meeting at, and collaborating on numerous mini-musicals for "The Hilarions" (during their three year run at Theater/Theatre). In 1992, Jeff Scott and his writing partner Bill Fagan formed Mayday Productions. Their first show was a comedic mock-u-musical revue: "Bombed A Lot! The Music of Peter Buoy Wryder". Their next project was a big-book musical: "Til Death Do Us Start". In between, they continued to write specialty material for many cabaret performers, and comics in the Los Angeles area.

Their final project together was "I Was A Teenage Homo!" a disco-encrusted parody of the 1950's teenage werewolf B-movies. Sadly Bill Fagan passed away on January 1, 2005, leaving most of act 2 unfinished. Jeff finished the show on his own, staged a reading for and with Theatre Neo (where he's been their sound designer for 9 years), and is thrilled that Theatre NEO presented the world premiere production in Los Angeles, Sept., 2007.
