About this audiobook
Excerpt: "The scene was the stage of the Star Theater in Atchison, Kansas, and the occasion the rehearsal of Frank Merriwell's company in his new play, "True Blue." From the first night "True Blue" had been a success; the playgoers of Puleob, Colorado, who had witnessed the failure of its first version, welcomed "True Blue" enthusiastically and assured Frank, as Roscoe Havener, his stage manager, had put it, that he had a "winner." Frank had chosen to turn back toward the East, instead of continuing on to the Pacific coast, for it was late in the season and business was on the decline. It would be better for the members of his company if the play closed its run in the East, leaving them on the ground when the time came to make engagements for the coming season. Besides that consideration, Frank had other reasons in turning Eastward. The failure to keep the dates made for "John Smith" and the partial failure of "For Old Eli" had made it difficult for him to secure theaters for "True Blue" on the Western route, while it was comparatively easy to secure good bookings on the way Eastward."
