Synopsis We really wish we could tell you what Jumpers is about but we both missed the first Broadway go round and we haven't been able to find a decent write up anywhere.

Notes Jumpers had a brief Broadway run at the Billy Rose Theater in 1974. Among those taking the stage were Brian Bedford, Jill Clayburgh and -- hopes of Carmine Ragusa to come -- Eddie Mekka
