All the Worldýs a Stage

About the Book

Antoine was scarcely aware of the fading light and wintry stillness as he envisioned sagging stalls replaced by a stage, a balcony where the drooping loft now stood, and carpeted floors with rows of seats in place of the packed dirt floor. This is it, he thought. Antoine would make his dream a reality.

Independent filmmaker Antoine Bouvier seems to have everything he ever wanted. With unforgettable performances by Rancid Mudd, Miracle B. Hinds, "Joe," and the beautiful and bountiful Cameron D'Angelo, Antoine creates an underground cinematic sensation. Who could deny the genius behind a film about bowel movements set against a backdrop of Republican notables? Certainly not Antoine!

But fame is a greedy mistress, and Antoine must now answer filmmaking's age-old question: now that you've made a movie about crap, where do you go from here? For Antoine, there is only one answer: live theater. Can he pull it off and bring his vision to the stage?
