Mark Twain Tonight! is a legendary one-man show that brings the wit, humor, and wisdom of Mark Twain to life on stage. Originally created and performed by Hal Holbrook, the play features Twain’s sharp observations on politics, society, and human nature – remarkably relevant today. Now, Emmy Award winner and Tony nominee Richard Thomas steps into the suit as the only actor authorized to perform the award-winning play, offering audiences a funny, insightful, and deeply human evening with one of America’s greatest storytellers.
Richard Thomas brings to life “the nation’s one true comic genius” (The New York Times) in Mark Twain Tonight! Join the millions who have cheered for the legendary one-man show, bursting with Twain’s “uproariously funny” and “pungently wise” (Time Magazine) humor.
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.
“Twain is back, as fresh and funny and snappy and snippy as ever.” – Hartford Courant
“Wisdom, wit, and humor that give a clear view not only of Twain but of ourselves.” – DC Theater Arts
