Brian Gari will sign his new book We Bombed in New London--The Inside Story of the Broadway Musical Late Nite Comic at Barnes and Noble Lincoln Center at 7PM on Tuesday November 28th. 

Special guests at the signing and performance will include Jerry Stiller, Jana Robbins and Joe Franklin.

"We Bombed in New London tells the true story of one man's tenacious plight to get his musical mounted. From its romantic inception to its eventual demise and then the score's resurrection in cabarets and recordings, this book takes you on a journey through the ups and downs of the theatrical world with all its excitement, disappointment, laughter and hope. Packed with memorabilia, including rare photos and interviews, this book documents composer/lyricist Brian Gari's minute by minute development of his musical," state Amazon.com notes.

"Fortunately, he saved every scrap of paper, tape and calendar to account accurately for why and when certain steps were taken that eventually led to the sad dissolution of this promising musical. Brian Gari began his songwriting career at age 12 with his first song published at 15 and recorded at 17. He signed with Vanguard Records in 1975 and has recorded eight solo CDs to date. In 1987 his first musical, Late Nite Comic, arrived on Broadway. With over 800 songs to date, he is currently at work on his next musical, which is about his legendary grandfather, Eddie Cantor. This is his first book."

The book is published by BearManor Media.  It is 228 pages in paperback.

We Bombed in New London can be purchased on Amazon.com, other online book retailers and in stores.
