HEAR Now Festival

 HEAR Now will once again be presenting  A Celebration of Mark Twain as part of the 2020 Festival.

This year's Festival focuses on Twain's stories that feature female characters from his fiction works like Huckleberry Finn as well as his non-fiction journals and newspaper articles.

Carol Monda and Sean Pratt are this year's Mark Twain mentors and will be heard on Saturday along with the winners of this year's Jeff Kraus Performance Scholarships.

Today's narrators are:
Byron Wagner reading from a selection of short works including The First Woman In Nevada, Buying Gloves in Gibraltar, and Speech on the Babies;
Larry Oliver reading from To Women an Irregular Toast;
Rachanee Lumayno reading from Recollections of Joan of Arc, Part 1;
Dan Ware reading from Advice to Little Girls;
Rhonda Singler-Ware reading from A Murder, A Mystery, A Marriage

These readings go 'live' today and will be available on the HEAR Now website to enjoy throughout the Festival weekend.
