'Once upon a wonderful time,' a young boy named Neil Schaffner left his home and family to join a traveling company of repertoire actors. He took with him a broad-brimmed hat, a Prince Albert coat with satin lapels, and a Western outfit, complete with chaps, spurs and leather wristlets. Within sixteen yeaars he began The Schaffner Players, and in time, achieved national acclaim. [This book] is Neil Schaffner's own look at the tent repertoire shows which made him the best-known trouper in the American folk theater.
