"bare, the musical" is a coming of age story of two high school seniors, Peter, a socially awkward loner, and Jason, the golden-boy popular jock. It depicts the reality of adolescence, as the youths struggle to find themselves amidst the pressures within their Catholic boarding school. They deal with their sexuality, their friendships and at the end of the year find themselves thrust into a world with more questions than answers.

“Better than "RENT" both musically and dramatically” – Los Angeles Daily News

“bare” has won numerous awards over the years including the Los Angeles Ovation Awards, 2001, for Best Musical, Best Original Score
