The Marcous of Prospect Street

David Joseph Marcou

4.9/5 (26787 ratings)

Description:This is David Joseph Marcou’s most up-to-date Marcou Family play, comprising seven scenes plus an encore moment, from 1964 to 2015. Marcou’s parents lived at 1720 Prospect Street in La Crosse, Wisconsin, for 60 years; they were married Valentine’s Day, 1950, and celebrated their 65th anniversary in 2015. David J. Marcou is their oldest grown child, born in November 1950, and there are six additional, very accomplished siblings in the family, too, including Dan Marcou, a former Wisconsin SWAT Officer of the Year and a fellow nationally known author. Other siblings are a judge, a former top official in the US Treasury Department, a policewoman, a county health worker, and a construction company accountant. All seven grown children have children, too.David’s son, Matt, is also included here as is Matt’s wife, Jessica, with all this play’s actions set at 1720 Prospect Street in La Crosse. Matt is an army special ops combat medic veteran and star university engineering student married to Jessica Amarnek Marcou, a successful artist and university teacher. The first scene is the longest and most humorous, covering one early morning in autumn 1964, when all seven Marcou siblings were still living at home. Subsequent scenes cover the family’s responses to the drowning of David’s nephew Tony Skifton at La Crosse, where 10 intoxicated young men drowned mysteriously in just over a decade — as well as 9/11/01, when David was finishing up the directing and editing of Spirit of America, Volume 1, winner of the Sept 12th Guild’s top award in 2002. David also directed-edited two more Spirit of America group anthologies, 23 more personal Spirit of America books, plus plays and dozens of added books by him of many types. In March 2015, the Marcou Nine, as one memorable photo-portrait of them is called, lost one member: their patriarch, David A. Marcou Jr., a meat cutter for 60 years. The story of his and the entire family’s struggles and triumphs is covered with focus, courage, wisdom, faith, hope, and love. Bart and Cherry Starr called the photos in David’s Spirit of America book series “heart-warming,” and this play, too, is heartwarming and honest enough to do justice to a family of note in Wisconsin history: the Marcous of Prospect Street. They always knew they had prospects, and this play shows some of the things they’ve done to realize those prospects.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
