The thesis
When we stop trying to be practical and instead honor the thing we cannot stop doing, an unlikely dream becomes a life. From a Baltimore basement to thousand-seat theaters in China and back to the birthday-party rooms where it began, Arnie Kolodner's story proves that story - not the trick - is what makes wonder land, and that the boy everyone tried to redirect was right all along.
