Overview
Emmy-Award® winning actor Richard Thomas brings to life “the nation’s one true comic genius” (The New York Times) in Mark Twain Tonight!, written and originally performed by Hal Holbrook. Join the millions who have cheered for the legendary one-man show, bursting with Twain’s “uproariously funny” and “pungently wise” humor (Time Magazine).
Most recently seen on Broadway in “Our Town,” on tour as Atticus Finch in “To Kill a Mockingbird,” on Netflix’s “Ozark,” and beloved to generations as John-Boy Walton, Richard Thomas is the first and only actor authorized to perform the play since the original.
