Description
Have you ever wondered what it's like to wander the streets of the historic French Quarter of New Orleans?
Sometimes it's dark and mysterious - a feeling of antiquity and romantic horror soaking the streets like the humidity soaks the air.
But sometimes it's as ridiculous as a slapstick comedy performed by a troop of caffeinated toddlers.
This book was written to spotlight that second kind of French Quarter mood. Within these pages you will find scenes of people saying and doing things they surely regret, in the unlikely event that they even remember them. Not all of them make sense, many involve adult language and things that should not have been shared in public, but I promise you, every one of these scenes is something I have personally witnessed on the streets of New Orleans.
So, flip through the pages of this book. Our backdrops are the bars of Bourbon Street, the art galleries of Royal Street, the souvenir shops of Decatur Street, and the ancient oaks of Jackson Square. The players are the tourists and transplants, the musicians and artists, the bartenders and acrobats who make these streets their stage. Raise the curtains on the surrealist comedy of The Drunks of the French Quarter Theatre.
