Looking Back On | Telling Twain


Join us as we say goodbye and look back on our 3rd Production of 2013, "Telling Twain", based on Mark Twain's Sketches Old and New as  adapted and compiled for the Stage by Deanne Farinha Eldridge with the stories being adapted for the stage by the Spring 2013 High-school Theatre Class...


These group of student actors acted out each of the short stories portrayed in "Telling Twain"

Deanne Farinha Eldridge filled in the spaces in between the stories with the interactions of Mark Twain (aka Samuel Clemens played by Stephen Watson) and his daughter Jean (played by Mia Comstock)
