Evening with Mark Twain Jan 19-20
On Jan. 19-20, national entertainer Kurt Sutton will perform an “Evening with Mark Twain” at the Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River. This presentation launches the first collaboration between the Columbia Center for the Arts and Skamania Performing Arts Foundation. Sutton's performance of "An Evening with Mark Twain" is based on years of research and development. Sutton is unusual in his approach to depicting Twain's wit and wisdom through humorous stories. He includes in the program several of the sing-a-long songs Twain led for his friends and family in his home almost every night. Show times are Saturday, Jan. 19, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Jan. 20, at 2 p.m. Tickets are $18 general admission, $15 for seniors and students and are available at the Columbia Center for the Arts, 215 Cascade Ave., Hood River.
