 Jim Post
as
Mark Twain
A folk singer/songwriter invokes the humanity of Mark Twain through song
"The show is worth it for the music
alone!" Roy Leonard NBC "Post focuses on Twain's younger days and he
can cut-up like the kid he ardently invokes in this perfect
show." ChicagoTribune
"His songs and monologues, whether serious
or witty, fell as natural o the ears as everyday conversation. Rousing...and
ideal family show." Chicago
Sun Times
Contact Nancy Emrich of LilFest to present Jim Post as Mark Twain or Jim Post’s
Folk Show, including songs from his folk-rock career spanning 60 years!
The music from Mark Twain and the Laughing
River won the American Library Award for 1997. Jim's music has been
described as the music Stephen Foster might have written had he been a playwright.
Jim's clear, soaring tenor voice is captivating, from opening song, "Might Big
River," which is nothing less than an American anthem, through the lovely images of
"Hannibal," to the precocious narrative of, "Naked Little Boy."
