"MARK TWAIN" Coming to Emporium

"MARK TWAIN" Coming to Emporium....as told by storyteller Charles Kiernan Saturday April 29th 3:00 PM Emporium Fire Hall 519 N. Broad Street, Emporium, PA. 

 Charles, has, of late, been fobbing himself off as Mark Twain with some success. Twain is wont to ramble on about his boyhood memories, the newspaper publishing business, life on the Mississippi and frogs. Mostly, though, he likes to talk about the river. The intent of the show is to give the audience a bit of Twain's biography, his humor and his viewpoint. The subject for his talk is his evolving view on what is man. To illustrate his view on this subject at various points during his life, he feels compelled to give the audience some of his personal history (he being his favorite topic). His conclusions are what you might expect if you know something about Twain. It's the journey to that conclusion that is the fun.

 Storyteller Charles Kiernan, now retired from gainful employment, performs at theatres, listening clubs, schools, libraries, and arts festivals. He is also coordinator for the Lehigh Valley Storytelling Guild, Pennsylvania State Representative for the National Youth Storytelling Showcase and Pennsylvania State Liaison for the National Storytelling Network.

 Cameron County Historical Society, Barbara Moscato Brown Library, & the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce have joined together to bring to our community this amazing performance to our area. Don't let this opportunity pass you by! Refreshments will be available EVERYONE is welcome you can RSVP by calling 814-486- 4314.
