Jim and Huck

A new play with Music
By Susan Lambert Hatem

Join us for an evening of theatre development! Ticket sales and donations will go to support Arts a La Carte and Pasadena’s Union Station Homeless Services Fire Relief.

Ten years after their infamous trip down the Mississippi River, formerly enslaved Jim and a grown-up Huckleberry Finn find themselves out West, setting out on a challenging journey to locate Jim’s lost family, encountering dangers, adventures, and surprising strangers, not the least of which is a young Samuel Clemens.

Come as we explore the power of writers, storytelling, and the lost and co-opted stories of history and America.

Co-Directed by Sergio Perez.
