The Open Book Players will present “Twain By the Tale,” the second production of their 25th season, at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 19, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 21, at Johnson Hall in Gardiner.
In this two act revue of Mark Twain stories, sketches, and monologues, adapted by Dennis Snee, the wit and timeless perceptions of America’s greatest humorist are celebrated. The focus of this production capitalizes on Twain’s talent for documenting the chronic and comic weaknesses of human nature.

Providing live music is Bob Giroux of Belgrade. The production is directed by Lucy Rioux, artistic director of Open Book Players, and assisted by Kathy Levasseur of Belgrade.
