    Metro Parks Theater Department and Fort Negley/Two Rivers Mansion present The Elusive Mr. Twain by Carolyn German. 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.

    The entire city of Nashville will celebrate the literary heritage and humor of Mark Twain during Nashville’s Citywide Celebration Of Mark Twain, August 2009-May 2010. The inclusive and cross-discipline artistic celebration of this lively, provoking and distinctly American writer will include book club discussions, art exhibits, theater presentations, dance performances, marionette shows, and musical tributes as rich and as varied as Twain's writing.
