Geeks and Gangsters — A Comic Fable -Play Version
by Rob. Lauer Inspired by the true story of the Cleveland teenagers—Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster—who created Superman, “Geeks & Gangsters” is now available for live performance.

Inspired by the true story of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster—the creators of Superman—award-winning playwright...
