BIO

Jason Veasey is an actor, known for American Gangster (2007), Only Murders in the Building (2021) and A Shot Through the Wall (2021). He was last seen in the Broadway and Woolly Mammoth production of A Strange Loop and the original Playwrights Horizons production, for which he won an Obie Award. Other credits include the Broadway and national touring companies of The Lion King and countless credits on stages across the country including Actors Theater of Louisville, Denver Center, and The MUNY. On TV you could spot him on “High Maintenance,” “Chicago Fire,” “Dash and Lily,” “Flatbush Misdemeanors,” and “Betty.” Upcoming: the film Home Free. Shout-outs to the folks at Nicolosi & Co. and, as always, DVS and V. He would like to dedicate this run and every other run of A Strange Loop to Darius Smith, and especially Keldon LaVar Price and Rich Affannato. I wish you could’ve seen our show. You would’ve loved it.
