Bounce / Road Show
Book by John Weidman
The Notion - Bounce
"A chronical of two brothers, Wilson and Addison Mizner, who were born in the 1880s and died in the 1930s. The show charts their lives from their beginnings in Benicia, California, through their adventures in the Klondike gold fields of the 1890s, where they meet Nellie, a woman who will play a significant part in their chronicle, thence to the extremes of New York City society in the early 1900s and into the Florida real estate boom and bust of the 1920s, for which they were largely responsible. It begins and ends in Palm Beach."
- Stephen Sondheim in Look, I Made a Hat -

"A chronicle of two brothers, Wilson and Addison Mizner, who were born in the 1880s and died in the 1930s. It begins and ends in bed. There is no leading lady."
