Congratulations to the cast and crew of Big River for a spectacular job!
"Big River: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is the winner of seven
Tony awards, including best musical score. Twain's timeless classic sweeps
the audience down the mighty Mississippi as Huck helps his friend Jim,
a black slave, escape to freedom at the mouth of the Ohio River. It brings
to life all the characters of Twain's novel - the Widow Douglas and her
stern sister, Miss Watson; the King and Duke; Tom Sawyer; and Pap Finn
and Mary Jane Wilkes.
