In this third novel of the series, Dwayne Finnegan has another crack at the big time as he directs his highly talented (but definitely dysfunctional) actors in King Lear at Chicago’s prestigious Goodman Theatre. However, his lead actor succumbs to terminal confusion, his set designer plans a huge, illegal fire effect on stage, his actors fall in and out of love, his wife Angela consorts with mysterious curandera, and Dwayne must set everyone straight before opening night.Praise for Give My Regards to Nowhere'Richard Engling knows Chicago’s famously chaotic and glorious storefront theater scene like the back of his hand. It’s the perfect setting for absurd comic hi-jinx.'-Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune'As Carl Hiaasen does with his Florida-based satirical crime novels, Engling’s gloriously silly narrative allows his readers to witness how the sausage gets made...thoroughly entertaining from start to finish.'-Karen Topham, ChicagoOnStagePraise for Romeo and Juliet Keep Their Eyes on the PrizeThis 'rollicking sequel...lovingly pokes fun at the backstage world of squabbling actors, amateur wannabes, dilapidated stages, financial crises, and chaotic rehearsals that may or may not lead to theatrical magic...hilarious...'-Maria Carrig, Evanston RoundTable'It’s funny, yes, and engaging too, but also wise and moving.'-Liam Heneghan, author of Beasts at Bedtime
