DEAD BOYS; Starring Matthew Scott Montgomery & Andrew Puente
Written, Directed by & Starring Matthew Scott Montgomery

West Hollywood, CA (June 2-24, 2017) – The World Premiere production of two person show, DEAD BOYS as part of the 2017 Hollywood Fringe Festival at The Other Space Theatre in West Hollywood. The play is written by Matthew Scott Montgomery and is starring Montgomery and Andrew Puente; also directed by Montgomery.

DEAD BOYS is a world premiere dramedy. The end of the world. Two millennials trapped in the basement of their old high school. The only gay kid in school. And the guy who used to beat him up. Provocative, hilarious, and heartbreaking, DEAD BOYS is about two modern American young men who have no choice but to face fate, race, sexuality – and each other.

“Matthew Scott Montgomery is a dream of an actor. He is probably the most brilliant young actor I’ve had the honor of working with in my career. He immerses himself in the work, honors the script and creates a performance beyond what you even imagined the character to be.” – Del Shores

“Matthew Scott is one of the hardest working and most talented friends that I’ve ever had.” – Demi Lovato
