Neil Rogers takes a Leading Role as David Sarnoff in 'The Farnsworth Invention'

I am pleased to announce that I have been cast as David Sarnoff in the upcomming prodution of 'The Farnsworth Invention' at Mainstage Irving Las Colinas. This is a fantastic and dramatic story about two driven individuals set in the arena of the invention of Television.

It’s 1929. Two ambitious visionaries race against each other to invent a device called “television.” Separated by two thousand miles, each knows that if he stops working, even for a moment, the other will gain the edge. Both men, started their journey from critical events of their youth, one by inspiration the other by tragedy. Both overcome incredible obstacles to bring them to the apex of what will change the face of the world and how we communicate. Who will unlock the key to the greatest innovation of the 20th century: the driven media mogul, or the self-taught Idaho farm boy?

The answer comes to compelling life in this Drama League Nominated play by Aaron Sorkin, creator of the play and movie "A Few Good Men", the hit TV series "The West Wing", "The Newsroom", and the Academy Award-winning film "The Social Network" Award winning actor Neil Rogers and newcomer Jackson Ewing head the cast of this electrifying new drama.
