The city of Nashville appears to be one of the first cities taking a lead in Twain celebrations beginning this month and running through 2010 with a website devoted soley to Nashville's planned activities: http://www.twainandtwang.org I note their schedule of activities includes a performance of the play "The Elusive Mr. Twain" by Carolyn German scheduled for April 28 - May 1, 2010. I am not familiar with this production but would be interested in comments from any who have seen or may see the play. Described as: Based on historical record, "The Elusive Mr. Twain" imagines the story of two women living in the post-Civil War South who develop an unlikely friendship after they discover a mutual dream of becoming newspaper journalists. Encouraged by the popularity of the legendary author and humorist Mark Twain, the pair sets off "up North" determined to win an audience with the man himself. Barb
