Author Description

AS HEARD ON NPR PLAYHOUSE - TWICE! “This is New Orleans, my home. Start by forgetting everything you’ve heard about this city, because I’ll tell you up front -- we’ve got a reputation and not all of it is earned. My name is Justin Stonewall Brady III, but everyone who knows me just calls me Stony. I teach literature and folklore at Tulane University. You may have heard the stories -- voodoo, debauchery, Bacchanalian frenzy up and down Bourbon Street. But there’s more, my friends, so much more. There’s so many people here, creating tomorrow’s folk tales day after day.” Set in modern-day New Orleans, this dramatic series breaks the mold and avoids cheap cliche’ to take you to America’s most notorious neighborhood. At times touching, funny, tragic, adventurous, mystical... and at all times, true to this unique American city and the eclectic people who call her home. Featuring a special guest appearance by David Ossman of the Firesign Theatre and music by Patrick O’Flaherty, The Poor Clares, Jeffrey Ruckma, The Gillham Park Orchtet and more!
