As a college freshman in 1972, it was my immense good fortune to see Hal Holbrook as Mark Twin, live. I loved it, but I was nowhere near mature enough to realize just how remarkable this man was. Actually, these two men.Both were pure genius at their crafts- America's greatest actor, America's greatest writer- together on stage. What a night...
Couldn't agree more. Though just a nod to the fact that there never has been and never will be an equal to Mark Twain. Voltaire of the United States of America.

that is amazing Tom! I'm jealous!
I saw HH do this play twice in Toronto in the early 90's. Superb acting.😊😅❤
Hal Holbrook was Mark Twain longer than Mark Twain was Mark Twain.
He was an outstanding actor, it’s just like hearing Mark Twain.
Hal was an amazing man. He is the reason I wanted to do living history.
This is one of the most enjoyable Mark Twain's that I have come across. Thank you!
The greatest story teller ever.
We so need a Mark Twain right now. And a George Carlin. And a Mark Russell.

@@tmitchellbarker Indeed, Voltaire was another brilliant observer, (if not quite as funny).
And Tom Lehrer.
What a performance! Love it.
mark twain would have loved this!!!
Sam would have been amused by Hal's performance of him.
Excellent. Nothing else to say.
O.M.G. What an amazing performance. I'm blown away.

A masterpiece performance.
Classic. Love it
If Sam had gotten to see how play him he would have first laughed, then he would have criticized his performance.
Thank you!
