Produktinformationen zu „Ned the Impresario of Columbus, Kansas (ePub)“

The novel is based on an embarrassing, but actual, event. In 1915, Ned Aitchison, then a senior at Cherokee County (Kansas) High School, produced a student play that was condemned for being "one of those risqué girly shows"; a hootchie-choochie burlesque romp complete with chorus lines, ribald jokes, saucy music, and costumes no decent person would have worn to an orgy. The school expelled him. Six decades later, the elderly Judge Aitchison sits down in his favorite, form-fitting parlor chair, sips a libation, daydreams of what might have been, and reconstructs the events that swirled around that infamous incident. Ned's memories of the episode are as clear as the days he had lived them. They lay bare every nuance of the affair, all the relevant, convoluted, and, by 1915 standards, sordid details, including the hundreds of people involved, his arch enemies, his best friends, his accidental engagement, Pink's chicken and, the goddess who was Eva Tanguay.

Autoren-Porträt von Tom Rhoads

Tom Rhoads has written, directed and produced some of the more yawn-provoking industrial, educational, and promotional shows audiences have ever slept through, epics such as "How to Make an Eye Splice in Wire Rope," "The Housewares Story," and the classic, "Machines That Test the Machines That Test Shock Absorbers." Over his career his shows have anesthetized more people than the Cleveland Clinic. For his less offensive crimes against eyeballs and ears he garnered honors like Cine and Telly awards, a local Emmy nomination (didn't win), and numerous other accolades few people have ever heard of. Tom hadn't either. Then he set aside the trunk of scripts he had written to write a novel about his maternal grandfather, Ned Aitchison, and his ill-fated impresarioship. As for education, Tom muddled through Kansas University and they gave him a degree in journalism for his muddling. They do that a lot. He is married, you can ask his wife, Linda, and he once did live in Columbus, Kansas-when he was four. And also five.
