Programme
While Mr. Twain’s selections may (or may not) come from the list below, we have been unable to pin him down as to which ones he will do. He claims this would cripple his inspiration. The books he works from include: Innocents Abroad; Roughing It; Following the Equator; Huckleberry Finn; and Life on the Mississippi. Other selections are from his various short stories and speeches. However, he has generously conceded to a printed programme for the benefit of those who are in distress and wish to fan themselves.
