Word On The Street

Ralph Covert must be one of the busiest guys around. This time he teamed up with Riley Mills to co-write the play "Sawdust and Spangles," recently nominated for (count 'em) five Jeff awards! The play is based on the life of 19th century circus showman W.C. Coup and was inspired by one of Covert's songs, "The Amazing Romero." The drama includes Covert's fictional character, but not the song, so I guess you'll have to buy Birthday, the album on which it appears.
