A friend in Bellingham, Washington sent me this notice. Thought some of you might be interested in reminders of how Twain got around.

But after I saw the production Christopher Key directed at the Pioneer Museum in Lynden in 2009, I asked myself the obvious question, "why hasn't this ever been done in Fairhaven?" Now it will be. For three weekends in August the Firehouse Performing Arts Center will host the play, which is loosely based on Twain's visit to Fairhaven in 1895. If you missed Mark Twain's visit to Fairhaven in then, now's the time to catch him. --Chuck *Mark Twain in Fairhaven *will be performed Thursdays - Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. / Sundays at 2:00 p.m. August 9th ~ 12th August 16th ~ 19th August 23rd ~ 26th Tickets are $12 for adults and $8 for students and seniors (62 and older) and are available at Village Books and online at *Brown Paper Tickets<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001jv4wvS95nAUzp5p_IG_BMdJx1PnQwOFG9cjzfp0OA4-iDueOoyg-IJiW388ZI3Dk4PWuuLfRNqwGjwFFRKDYfR7vkb8xsqHXomM_GMoCF9xNKMmAaMUQlyw3u4A-L60tsVRI7_41fiJgQVUo5f-uFw==> *.
