ROMEOVILLE IL - The White Oak Library District presents “Catch The Twain: The Musical,” on Saturday, November 21 at 2:00 pm. The event takes place at the library, 201 Normantown Road.

“Mark and I have been developing this Chautauqua style program for over three years now,” said Warren Brown, who has spent over thirty-five years researching the life and work of Twain. “And just Twain himself, we like to play off the audience members and off each other with stories, jokes and songs."

“Warren Brown is Mark Twain,” said folk musician and songwriter Mark Dvorak who provides the soundtrack to Brown’s performance, performing old-time banjo tunes, period songs and audience participation. "Warren is hilarious. We've been crossing paths for years and it’s been a lot fun working with him to put this show together.”
