Jazz On Jackson:
Charmaine Neville

As the daughter of one of the highly acclaimed Neville Brothers, Charmaine Neville is heir to a rich New Orleans musical legacy, but is busy putting her own stamp on this musical heritage. She and her band dish out a spicy mix of the best of New Orleans music, from the nastiest of blues to some V-8 driven R&B.

Mark Twain

Join actor Ron Jewell as he transports you to a rainy evening fireside in Mark Twain's last home in Stormfield, Connecticut where you will hear tales from the extraordinary life he has led. Jewell uses excerpts from Twain's private letter collection, as well as from some of his greatest works, including Roughing It, Life on the Mississippi, Tom Sawyer, and Huck Finn. Learn of the boy Samuel L. Clemens born in Hannibal, Missouri, his life as river boat worker (where he adopted the moniker, "Mark Twain"), and finally his varied careers as newspaperman, printer, and author.

Huck Finn's Story

Huck Finn's Story -- the escape from his drunken father and befriending a runaway slave -- is an adventure tale of excitement and suspense, delightfully sprinkled with homespun humor. The play reveals Huck as a clever, lovable boy, who is baffled by the greed, hypocrisy and absurdity of society. During his long journey down the Mississippi River, he grows up within as well. The Actors Co-op of Knoxville, TN will present this play through a minimal approach, encouraging young audiences to use their imaginations to weave this legendary tale, while entertaining them with songs and storytelling. Grades K through 8.

Director Kara Kemp grew up in Beechgrove and is the daughter of Marcia Manley of Murfreesboro, and Tullahoma residents Jim and Lin Kemp.
