MLK’s Death at 40

Tomorrow marks the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Here’s the speech Robert F. Kennedy made on the night of King’s assassination. I get chills whenever I listen to the crowd react to the news.

RFK, of course, would himself be assassinated two months later.

Attack of the Theater People

Marc Acito’s new novel, Attack of the Theater People, comes out later this month. Anyone who loves theater should read his first novel, How I Paid for College: A Novel of Sex, Theft, Friendship & Musical Theater; a funny, heartwarming and sexy story about New Jersey theater geeks.

Anyway, Marc has posted a short video promoting the book. I love it.

Who hasn’t thought about making out with a poster of Cheyenne Jackson?
