oin this milestone production as Jim Post takes us on a journey of the American author and humorist’s life using Twainian wit and wisdom paired with the triumphant music that is characteristic of Post’s productions. After seeing Jim Post’s performance of Mark Twain and the Laughing River, audiences will understand why Twain called his childhood “the wellspring of [his] clearest inspiration.” The show reveals that the Mississippi River was the young writer’s inspiration for his devilish temperament. Finally, audiences discover how Hannibal, with its buckskin spirit of adventure, was a boy’s paradise.
