Continue Laughing

This is the story of Bronx-born David Kokolovitz and his hilarious experiences with sex, Shakespeare, and the South Pacific. In search of an acting career, New Yorker David ends up living in the Deep South where he lands his first job at a southern Shakespeare repertory company. Just as the hazards of too-tight tights and too-long soliloquies become too much for him, World War II conveniently breaks out and he moves on to entertain the troops. It is then that he discovers his true talent— the ability to make people laugh. Renowned entertainer Carl Reiner narrates his own novel about a factory worker who turns into a show business icon.
