A Fine and Pleasant Misery

In 1992, Pat McManus, one of America's funniest humor writers known for his columns in Field and Stream and Outdoor Life, and his 12 books, wondered if his stories about growing up in rural Idaho might work on the stage. The result was described by one reviewer as "a wonderful cross between Mark Twain and Bill Cosby." Actor Tim Behrens plays Pat McManus as he rummages through an old trunk. Each discovery—a piece of tent, the slingshot "Whomper," his collection of dried road kill, a cracked brace from his sled "Rosebud" - triggers recollections of an incident from his childhood. Fun for the whole family!
