THE COMPLETE TOM: 2. HUCKLEBERRY continues THE COMPLETE TOM's trend of combining Mark Twain's writings into an expanded telling of Tom and Huck's story. The second installment in Queen City Flash's four-play cycle reunites Adventures of Huckleberry Finn with a cut chapter found in Life on the Mississippi and related footnotes from Twain's Chapters from My Autobiography.
- Please Note: 2. HUCKLEBERRY is a faithful adaptation of the original story and therefore includes racial slurs consistent with Twain's social commentary.
