About this deal

This is now now my 3rd disappointing visit to Bumpkin Stratford out of 5 visits. I won’t make the same mistake again. But, besides the Feegeeans, Tongatobooarrs, Erromanggoans, Pannangians, and Brighggians, and, besides the wild specimens of the whaling-craft which unheeded reel about the streets, you will see other sights still more curious, certainly more comical. There weekly arrive in this town scores of green Vermonters and New Hampshire men, all athirst for gain and glory in the fishery. They are mostly young, of stalwart frames; fellows who have felled forests, and now seek to drop the axe and snatch the whale-lance. Many are as green as the Green Mountains whence they came. In some things you would think them but a few hours old. Look there! that chap strutting round the corner. He wears a beaver hat and swallow-tailed coat, girdled with a sailor-belt and a sheath-knife. Here comes another with a sou’-wester and a bombazine cloak. Kerry Ellis is set to release her autobiography this summer (3 August) and I could not be more excited to read it! If I had been astonished at first catching a glimpse of so outlandish an individual as Queequeg circulating among the polite society of a civilized town, that astonishment soon departed upon taking my first daylight stroll through the streets of New Bedford.

Kerry Ellis: Bumpkin to Broadway brings all of this to life in a book that is not just for fans of musical theatre, but for fellow actors and other members of the industry but further than this, the book will be loved by anyone who enjoys live performance. Only dropped a star due to the publishers not proof reading it. Missing words and punctuation left me guessing what sentence were supposed to say. I’ve informed the publishers so they can correct this for future print runs.

Kerry Ellis: Bumpkin to Broadway by Kerry Ellis, Brian May

Kerry Ellis has fast become recognised as the leading lady of West End musicals from her starring roles in London and on Broadway. She has also achieved chart-topping success as a recording artist signed to Universal Decca and has gone onto release six solo recordings in so far including her acclaimed debut album ANTHEMS which featured guest musicians from iconic bands Queen, Foo Fighters and The Darkness. KERRY ELLIS: BUMPKIN TO BROADWAY brings all of this to life, first hand and in beautiful and inspiring detail starting with her early life and finishing by looking at times ahead. As the prologue begins describing her performance with Brian May in the Verona Arena, a roman amphitheatre that could fit up to 30,000 citizens in ancient times, KERRY ELLIS: BUMPKIN TO BROADWAY shares these experiences for the first time in a truly humbling manner that often is a privilege to read.

Go and gaze upon the iron emblematical harpoons round yonder lofty mansion, and your question will be answered. Yes; all these brave houses and flowery gardens came from the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. One and all, they were harpooned and dragged up hither from the bottom of the sea. Can Herr Alexander perform a feat like that?This collection of children's literature is a part of the Educational Technology Clearinghouse and is funded by various grants. Kerry's story doesn't read like a thought-out narration with some sort of an overarching theme and at least a resemblance of structure; instead, it reads like a drunken ramble in a pub where you keep losing your train of thought and jumping from one topic to another or a midnight text to a friend with lots of SHOUTY CAPITALS and an exclamation point in every other sentence (sometimes two!!).
