Chambers Street Theatre for 11:00am on Apr 27th, 2017

My goodness, April is almost gone, and we need to say to April's Birthday Girl: Ella Fitzgerald, "Happy Birthday, you'd be 100 years old if you were still alive."  Ahh, but she is still alive, and will live forever.  We open today's show with "A Tisket A Tasket,"  the song that made her a star, then go to "Roughing It" by Mark Twain.  We're all the way up to Chapter 24.  You will hear another Twain part true part tall tale about his buying a bucking horse.

Well, here we are at the April time of year so let's go to "The Innocents Abroad."  "TIA" is the big success Mark Twain had with the publishing of his notes from his trip to Europe and the Holy Land.  We start in Chapter 48 and jump around to Chapter 49 and 50, then back to 48.   There's a swim in the Sea of Galilee and other "must dos."  Twain sees the current Holy Land as it was in the 1800's, and comments on the changes.  This is the show to hear for this time of rebirth and renewal.  It's real and it's entertaining.
