“Look out for me, oh muddy water!”
Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is brought to life to the strains of the banjo, fiddle, and harmonica in this Tony Award-winning musical. Huck escapes home and all attempts to “civilize” him and hits the mighty Mississippi with the runaway slave Jim. That great river takes the two of them on adventures they didn’t imagine and brings them to places as exotic and far away as Arkansas. This delightful and tuneful adventure story won seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score. Presented at Reynolds Performance Hall
