Montagues Father
Edwin Montague is throwing a party to mark twenty-five years of working in the theatre. During this celebration, Edwin gets to see his father again. His father is known as The Great Montague, and Edwin himself goes by the name The Magnificent Montague.
Nathaniel "Magnificent" Montague, is an American R&B disc jockey notable not only for the soul music records he helped promote on KGFJ Los Angeles and WWRL New York City, but also his trademark catch-phrase, "Burn, baby! Burn!" that became the rallying cry of the 1965 Watts riots. Following criticism that this phrase had inadvertently stirred up rioters, Montague advocated non-violence and urged young listeners to pursue their education, coining the new phrase "Learn, baby! Learn!"
