    Mark Twain’s Wagnerian Adventures

    What did American literary icon Mark Twain and German music titan Richard Wagner have in common? If you said “Wavy hair,” you are correct! If you said anything else, you’re probably mistaken. Desite the lack of common ground, Twain’s deeply personal impressions of the Bayreuth experience form the basis for this month’s “Off the Cuff” column by General Director and CEO Keith Cerny for “Theater Jones.” You can enjoy it all right here.

    Keith’s latest “Off the Cuff”

    Why do I have the distinct feeling that eighteenth-century artist William Hogarth was a “glass half-empty” kinda guy? Even so, nobody served up social commentary like this influential Brit and he’s the subject–no, more like the catalyst–of General Director and CEO Keith Cerny’s latest “Off the Cuff” for Theater Jones.

    Enjoy it right here.

    Suzanne Calvin, Manager/Director of Media and PR
