"Here is the firsthand account of an actor's life on the road with two Broadway tours: The Producers and Les Miserables. Join Michael Kostroff from the moment he's cast to his headfirst plunge into a world of rehearsals, travel days, hotel rooms, cast changes, mood swings, onstage mishaps, standing ovations, and Mel Brooks. He chronicles it all-from playing haunted theaters in Memphis and coping with temporary burnout in Portland to dancing around a crashing set in San Diego and sharing the stage with Jason Alexander and Martin Short in Los Angeles. Any thespian or theater lover who wants to know what it's like to thrive in the organized chaos of a Broadway tour will want to read this unforgettable slice of life as a touring actor.
