Another project I am working on, is a film adaptation of the play Jack Kerouac wrote in 1941 while he was at Columbia- 'There is Something About a Cigar' I have a cast lined up of very talented people. It will be exciting, originally the play takes place near a lake with gentleman coming in learning the importance of 'taking it all in' I re-wrote parts to make it fit the cast and my surroundings (Westerville, Oh) The project will both shine a light on the beautiful small town of Westerville and also bring about knowledge of a not-so well known play written by an 18 year old Jack Kerouac. I was unable to find a copy of the play on google, but just use it as an excuse to pick up and much needed book for any Kerouac lover like myself. The play and other essays/short stories are featured in the collection titled 'Atop an Underwood'
happy reading,
joshua
