À propos de cet audio

There has never been a show business book quite like The Show Won't Go On, the first comprehensive study of a bizarre phenomenon: performers who died onstage. From the comedy magician who dropped dead on live television to the amateur thespian who expired during a play called The Art of Murder, the book is a celebration of lives both famous and obscure, as well as a dramatic and accurate recounting of events leading to the moments they died "doing what they loved." The Show Won't Go On covers almost every genre of entertainment, and is full of unearthed anecdotes, exclusive interviews, colorful characters, and ironic twists.

While it doesn’t seem right to say I enjoyed this book, as it’s all about people coming to unfortunate ends, I did enjoy “listening” to it. Mostly these tales happened a long time ago, so the distance does make for easier listening. Stay away if you will be traumatized by gory details, but otherwise indulge your morbid curiosities. I confess I got a kick out of comedians who made a dramatic death scene as part of their acts, sealing their own fates when the audience applauded and no one lifted a finger to help. Egads.
