Playhouse by Richard Bausch

2.0

As someone who works in the Memphis Theatre Community (at Playhouse on the Square, usually referred to as Playhouse…) this book was a bit of a let down. I wish the note that the author had taken liberties with locations in Memphis was at the beginning, rather than the end. I spent most of the book confused as to how they teleported from Busters Liquor in East Memphis to Mud Island so suddenly. It just felt weird to constantly name drop places (that didn’t add or subtract from the plot) but not put them in the right section of the city.
Also the story itself just wasn’t doing it for me. It kinda goes to nothing in the end.
