Damian Gillen as Twain
A one-man stage show and dinner theater on Saturday night, Feb.13, has at its heart on one of the country’s premier writers and characters. It’s Samuel Clemens of course, known to most as Mark Twain. Damian Gillen plays Twain in his trademark white suit.
“Yes, it’s ‘An Evening With Mark Twain.’ Lots of great material, both funny and tragic,” Gillen said. “It’s a very powerful show, plus I’m going to be adding some new material because it’s Valentines Day, including a love letter he wrote to his wife.”
Gillen has long felt a connection with Twain, in fact, tracing his time on stage and doing Twain’s work for decades.
