LIFE ON THE MISSISSIPPI
Life on the Mississippi
By R. Rex Stephenson
Company of between 18 - 35 actors
Unit Setting.
Script: 64 pages. About 90 minutes.
Here is a combination of three of Mark Twain's books blended into one story that continues Huck and Tom's great adventures. Huck and Tom are called to Arkansas because something mysterious is happening to Uncle Silas. As only Huck and Tom can, they set about solving the mystery that involves twin brothers, the maniacal Widow Dunlap and her nere-do-well son. This story is as poignant and humorous as Huck Finn, but without any of the racial overtones that in some areas has made Twain a controversial author.
As the Franklin News Post said the play is "a delicacy: juicy, funny, dramatic and immensely entertaining."
