Bruce Coville Why Bruce loves this book

I adore the characters in the "Thursday Murder Club" series. They are so well defined that by the second book I felt as if I was getting to meet some old friends again. The plots are complicated, but Osman plays fair. And the books are truly witty! Absolutely great pleasure reading!

Bruce Coville Why Bruce loves this book

I am a huge Broadway buff, and this book takes you backstage as the entries are written by top notch reporters who had the chance to watch a project disintegrate in real time. The stories are often heartbreaking, other times enraging. A few times I gasped out loud at the shenanigans and craziness that sent a show hurtling toward its doom!

What is this book about?

If Broadway's triumphant musical hits are exhilarating the backstage tales of Broadway failures are tantalizing soap operas in miniature. ESecond Act TroubleE puts you with the creators in the rehearsal halls at out-of-town tryouts in late-night hotel-room production meetings and at after-the-fact recriminatory gripe fests. Suskin has compiled and annotated long-forgotten first-person accounts of 25 Broadway musicals that stubbornly went awry. Contributions come from such respected writers as Patricia Bosworth Mel Gussow Lehman Engel William Gibson Lewis H. Lapham and John Gruen. No mere vanity productions these; you can't have a big blockbuster of failure it seems without the participation…
