This living, breathing American masterpiece is, quite simply, one of the most acclaimed and enduring performances in the history of theatre. Nearly 50 years ago, a young actor took the stage in a tiny off-Broadway theatre and introduced the world to a man they’d never forget. The actor was Hal Holbrook. The man was Mark Twain. The one-man Emmy and Tony Award-winning show is the celebrated "Mark Twain Tonight!"

“Holbrook’s characterization of the great novelist and raconteur is…a mesmerizing thing to behold.” – The Washington Post
