An exhilarating journey into self-realization. This book is based on an autobiographical solo show, written and performed by Scott Barry in San Francisco to critical acclaim:

“You don’t have to be a football fan to enjoy Barry’s story of… reaching for his dreams, falling short and ending up someplace entirely unexpected.”
OAKLAND TRIBUNE

“A surprisingly poetic tale of personal redemption.”
BAY AREA REPORTER

“Barry’s script is a beautifully written and constructed jazz riff, a word-drunk beat meditation on success and failure that’s filled with real-life suspenseful reversals.”
SAN FRANCISCO GUARDIAN

“Hilarious.”
SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS

“A visceral portrait of what it’s like to stand on the crest of achieving one’s fondest desire… and then watch it crumble.”
