Based on a historical fact, this one man play imagines Mark Twain giving a public lecture upon his return from visiting Palestine in 1867. Â Containing much sardonic humour - his hilarious advice to youth, for example- Â the play presents Mark Twain as the consummate raconteur and story teller. Enlightening and engaging the audience with his acerbic insights into the land of the Bible and its inhabitants, Twain also takes on some of the more serious issues of the day including racism, slavery, censorship and war.
