À propos de cet audio
A young college misfit opens a nightclub in rural Appalachia and achieves great success. Then, loses everything except the woman he loves.
Tommy is a lonely college misfit, working his way through school as a mobile DJ. The demands of his business prevent him from engaging in the college experience. His grades and relationships suffer. Alienated from school and classmates, he feels like an unworthy outsider, unable to achieve the academic, relationship, and romantic success others in his world seem to easily obtain.
After graduation, faced with a sagging economy and no job prospects, he employs energy, ingenuity, and naïve single-mindedness to transform a rat-infested miner’s bunkhouse in a tiny Appalachian coal village into the hottest nightclub in three counties. At first, it seems he achieves the success and vindication he yearns for. But the successes are short-lived as he succumbs to the temptations of club life. Indulging in partying, sex, drugs, and other nefarious activities, his small empire descends into oblivion.
On another level, Last Call is a transformational love story. Early on, Tommy meets Shelly at a frat party. He’s an aspiring entrepreneur, while she’s planning on attending medical school. Their conflicting schedules and distance make their relationship difficult. Over time, however, Tommy’s many liaisons at the club leave him empty, unsatisfied, and lonely. His success is hollow, and he yearns for a deeper relationship with the woman he learns to love.
