About this Event

MahoganyBooks is excited to host KevOnStage for a meet and greet photo opp in celebration of his latest book, Successful Failure! Each ticket includes a copy of the book.


ABOUT THE BOOK:

As a kid, Kevin Fredericks noticed something useful: If he made people laugh, the grown-ups would let him stay up late. In church plays, his commitment to the role of Goliath led to a busted lip, and the audience couldn’t get enough. He dreamed of becoming a performer, of finding that big break that would launch him into the bright lights of pop culture fame. But as he soon found, the road to the life we want is longer, weirder, more embarrassing, and more entertaining than we think it will be.

In Successful Failure, the NAACP Image Award–winning comedian recounts hilarious stories and sincere insight from his adventures (and misadventures) trying to make it in life. From performing under an alias to avoid getting fired from his suit-and-tie day job to breaking a chair onstage and quitting stand-up for six months, from pooping his pants on a bus next to his future wife to starting a clothing line called Dreams Don’t Die (they sure do if the merch doesn’t sell), Kevin reminds readers that while we might not be The Rock, Warren Buffett, or Kevin Hart, we’re all out here trying, and that’s okay.Laugh-out-loud in one moment and perceptive in the next, Successful Failure is a wild ride from one of America’s funniest comics and a sendup of our ideals around hustle culture and success.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Kevin Fredericks is an NAACP Image Award–winning comedian, the founder of KevOnStage Studios, and a superstar on social media. He is the co-author, with his wife, Melissa, of the New York Times bestseller Marriage Be Hard. His work and commentary have been featured by Good Morning America, Complex, Ebony, Newsweek, The Daily Beast, and MSNBC.
