Mark Twain Tonight

Hal Holbrook’s one-man tour-de-force, Mark Twain Tonight! is the ultimate merger of man and material. It is as close to a re-creation of Twain’s own appearances on the lecture circuit late in his life as we can get. Every word Holbrook uses on stage comes verbatim from Twain. And given the rich vein of American humor he’s mined in Twain, Holbrook is able, through Twain, to comment with wry wit on the contemporary American scene.
