Knoxville Children's Theatre: Tom Sawyer
Category: Kids, family, Literature, spoken word, writing and Theatre
Performed Thursdays and Fridays at 7 PM; Saturdays at 1 PM and 5 PM; and Sundays at 3 PM.
Tom Sawyer may be the most famous resident of St. Petersburg, Missouri, but he’s a down to earth character who not only knows how to cure warts with stump water and live the swashbuckling life on the high seas, he can also whitewash a fence in no time flat. Mark Twain’s homage to the imagination and high adventure of youth on the mighty Mississippi features Tom and a cast of characters who live at the very heart of Americana: Huck Finn, Aunt Polly, Becky Thatcher, the Widow Douglas, Muff Potter, and more.
The play is performed by 17 talented young actors and designed by 9 talented young designers from ages 9 to 16.
KCT is East Tennessee’s leading producer of plays for children and families.
