The Mark Twain Stroke Factor

The Mark Twain Stroke Factor

If Mark Twain strokes out
A black-clad manchild stage tech
will haul Hal stage left

This weekend I am going to see Hal Holbrook play Mark Twain in his one-man show, Mark Twain Tonight! He has been doing this play since 1954, and I am fearful that Hal will stroke out on stage; after all the man is 86 years old. I love love love Hal Holbrook, especially his role in the 1982 film Creepshow. He was so giggly while trying to lure his loudmouth wife Wilma to her doom. Keep your fingers crossed for Hal's continued brain health!
