Richard Thomas Will Lead MARK TWAIN TONIGHT! at TheaterWorks Hartford
Performances run August 12 - August 24, 2025.
TheaterWorks Hartford will host the first production of the new national tour of Mark Twain Tonight! written and originally performed by Hal Holbrook featuring Emmy Award-winner Richard Thomas. The NETworks Presentations touring production will perform at TWH for a limited time August 12 - August 24, 2025.
