What is DEAR JEFF

Based on a true story, Dear Jeff is a raw and heartfelt journey into the struggles of heartbreak, domestic abuse, and finding hope after despair. This unique musical comedy blends moments of humor with profound vulnerability, showing how even in the darkest times, laughter and connection can light the path to healing.

The story delves into the aftermath of a broken relationship and the emotional toll of abuse, exploring themes of suicide, self-worth, and the resilience it takes to rebuild. It’s a love letter to anyone who has ever felt lost, trapped, or hopeless—a reminder that even when it feels impossible, healing is always within reach.

Have you ever felt lost after heartbreak? Questioned your own value? Struggled to rebuild after the weight of depression or the scars of abuse? You’re not alone. Dear Jeff shines a light on these quiet battles that so many face but rarely talk about, reminding us that there’s a strength within us waiting to rise.

After touching hearts on stage, we’re now taking the next step: turning this powerful story into a film. With your support, we can bring Dear Jeff to screens around the world, amplifying its message of hope, resilience, and the courage to begin again.

By supporting this project, you’re helping to share a universal message of healing and reminding others that no one has to face their battles alone.

Together, we can make this vision a reality.
