A brisk, brass-rimmed adventure that folds the bright glare of vaudeville into the grit of late Victorian America. Meet Al Allston, a canny advance agent whose schemes, scrapes, and sharp-eyed courage map a theatre world where show business is both art and peril. Ahead Of The Show follows a spine-tingling blend of adventure fiction and theatre intrigue as Al threads stage promotions, rivalries, and the pulse of a bustling New York theatre era. The story delivers a vivid stage-show adventure, grounded in the era's hustling energy, while offering timeless themes of risk, loyalty, and the lure of the spotlight. It's a window into early American dime novels and pulp-era fiction, presented with a narrator's affection for the craft and a reader's appetite for fast, gripping plotting. This edition matters: it restores a once-forgotten lantern of cultural history-out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Not merely a reprint, but a collector's item and a cultural treasure, carefully prepared for today's audience and for future generations. It will appeal to casual readers seeking a brisk, character-driven drama and to classic-literature collectors and book club readers eager for historical flavour, show business history, and the glow of late Victorian America in the pages of a meticulously preserved classic.
