On each of these pages you will find a question. Some are quirky. Some are kinky. Some will make you chuckle. And some will make you cry. Each is a conversation starter designed to help you and your partner achieve more intimacy; emotional intimacy, that is. (And I suppose that more emotional intimacy might lead to more physical intimacy, but I'll leave that for you two to figure out.) How many times has your partner misunderstood you? And can you guess how many times you have misunderstood them? I wonder how much of this could be cured by a deeper understanding of what is in their heart? Deep understanding: that just might be the key. Unabashed sharing: that just might help. There is more to this philosophy than just being truthful with your partner. In fact, these questions don't go the traditional therapy route; I'll leave that to the professionals. Instead, the questions are about dreams. They are about desires. They are about vulnerability. And so I ask you to cuddle up next to that person you love so much. Cuddle up in the darkness, feet touching, with a blanket of warmth around you. Let your inhibitions step aside for now. Take turns asking a single question at a time, and let the responses lead you where they may. It is my hope that things will be just a bit more intimate tonight. And tomorrow you'll be a stronger couple. I promise.

Everyone has heard of the Jersey Boys. Thirteen million people have seen the show, totaling more than $1 billion in worldwide ticket sales. Jersey Boys tells the true-life story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons and features such hits as "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Walk Like A Man," and "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You." The production is currently in its seventh year on Broadway, and is also playing in Las Vegas, London, Auckland, and is on two US National Tours. Since its debut in 2005, Jersey Boys has won four Tony Awards, including Best Musical, making it a staple of musical theater. Places, Please documents Daniel Robert Sullivan's transformation from a "small-time" professional actor to a musical superstar: his two years of auditions, weeks of rehearsals, and hundreds of performances in the Toronto Company of Jersey Boys, where he appeared as bad-boy Tommy DeVito. Daniel shares his experiences of life in musical theatre from the arduous process of auditioning to the elation of finally landing that big role. He also shares backstage secrets and the lighter side of the demanding industry. Places, Please is a memoir that can be enjoyed by anyone inside or out of the industry who enjoys a great story from an author with a perpetually optimistic smile. Neither a plea from a struggling artist nor a dry account of the theater, this novel's humor and wit carries the audience with it at a fast pace.
