The return of Twain In The 21st Century
Written, directed, and starring Tennessee Webb.
Produced and co-starring Barbara Pergament as “Miss Livy”
What if the most American of all legendary writers came back today, in the 21st century, to tell us what he thought about what is going on? Far beyond Tom Sawyer and Huckelberry Finn, this one-man show brings Mark Twain into modern day times, allowing his unique style and voice an opportunity to comment on contemporary issues. In an edgy and dramatically hilarious fashion, his clever wit and sometimes pompous criticism shines. He marvels at modern day technology, and in typical Twain style he tackles, politics, religion and sensationalism, and state of Hollywood cinema today!. Twain In the 21st Century is an illuminating blend of political satire, comedy and drama brought to life on stage, featuring Tennessee Webb.
"If every American had seen Mark Twain "unplugged", before election day, America would be in a different place today. Tennessee Webb knows Mark Twain better than Huck or Tom or even Sam ever did and he let's us in on the secret."
