About The Show

Solitary Man is a 90-minute show that tells the stories and celebrates the music of Neil Diamond. Starting with his childhood growing up in Brooklyn New York and tracing his remarkable career and the timeless songs through the decades and the influences that define it.

A poet, philosopher, and masterful storyteller, his songs have resonated with millions worldwide, and it is a genuine honor to bring these beloved songs and anecdotes to life for you.

Solitary Man is a theatrical show, well-suited to theater venues, dinner-theatre events, and gatherings that center on a live, engaging performance.

It is the brainchild of Scott Brotherton, who wrote the piece, conducted all of the research, and performs the title role himself.


RPM Productions was founded in 2005 by Scott Brotherton and Damion Fontaine. The company's other offerings include the critically acclaimed Frank & Dean Show, and The Rat Pack and More, which features Stan Davis stepping into the role of Sammy Davis Jr.
