All of your favorite Twain characters are here in this skillful, easy-to-stage adaptation of the classic. Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer are up to their usual high jinks — skipping church to go fishing, starting a band of robbers with their friends and frustrating the girls. But when Huck’s no-good pap comes back to stir up trouble and bring Huck back to live with him, Huck stages his own murder so he can escape his abusive father and live life on his own terms without even Widow Douglas and Miss Watson trying to “civilize” him. Huck meets up with Jim, the runaway slave, and the two make their way down the Mississippi in their joint voyage to freedom. The action is non-stop on their journey — Huck dons a dress to go into town, they get wrapped up in a plot with two con artists trying to steal a family’s inheritance at a funeral, and Jim gets caught by no other than Tom Sawyer’s uncle. Tom and Huck reunite to rescue Jim, and they all learn a lesson about what freedom means to them. With all the flavor of the original but with simplified dialect for easy comprehension, this adaptation is perfect for student actors and audiences of all ages.
