  On the Stage—and Off: The Brief Career of a Would-Be Actor is Jerome K. Jerome’s wry, self-aware account of youthful ambition colliding with reality. Written with the gentle irony and observational humor that would later make him famous, this autobiographical sketch follows a young Jerome as he becomes convinced—briefly but earnestly—that the theater is his true calling. 
  Inspired by the glow of the stage and the poetry of Shakespeare, he throws himself into study, preparation, and theatrical dreaming, only to encounter skeptical friends, practical obstacles, and the quietly comic truths of the profession. What unfolds is not a tale of triumph or tragedy, but of aspiration, illusion, and the peculiar education that comes from trying. 
  Warm, reflective, and lightly self-mocking, On the Stage—and Off offers a charming glimpse into the late-19th-century theatrical world and the inner life of a man learning—gracefully—that wanting something is not the same as belonging to it. Narrated with clarity and restraint by Tony J. Martin, this memoir remains a timeless portrait of ambition, humility, and the comedy of honest effort.

  19: The Musical is the dynamic and little-known story of Alice Paul, Ida B. Wells, Susan B. Anthony, Carrie Chapman Catt, Inez Milholland and the other suffragists who fought to get women the right to vote - The 19th Amendment. The inspirational story of these fearless women is brought to life through jazz, traditional musical standards style, spoken word, and hints of gospel. Alice Paul and the suffragist's fight for equality have been re-imagined for a new generation with a poignant and uplifting message that will resonate for years to come. 
  Originally created and performed on stage, 19: The Musical has been adapted for a new medium to reach a broader audience through audiobooks. 
  Book & Lyrics by Jennifer Schwed and Doug Bradshaw, ​​​​​​​Music Composed & Arranged by Charlie Barnett
