Tom Sawyer

is the all-American rascal of literature. He gets into mischief with his

friend Huckleberry Finn, cons the local boys to do his chores for him

and has run-ins with the evil Injun' Joe.

Mark Twain's

tales of Tom Sawyer are beloved by many. Now there is an opportunity to

enjoy Tom Sawyer even more as Fayette-Coweta Family Theatre presents "Tom

Sawyer: An American Legend" at Sams Auditorium this weekend.

The show is

a musical that is fun for the whole family. The entire town of Hannibal,

Missouri, will be there including Tom; Huck; Tom's romantic interest,

Becky Thatcher; Tom's brother, Sid; his cousin Mary and his aunt Polly,

as well as many others. The show runs approximately 90 minutes and there

will be a 15-minute intermission.

During intermission

audiences will have an opportunity to visit Tom and Huck's General Store

for some fishin' down at the creek, face painting and some country souvenirs

to remember their time spent in Hannibal.

"Tom Sawyer:

An American Legend" will take place Thursday, May 23, at 6:30 p.m.;

Saturday, May 25, at 3 and 7 p.m.; and Sunday, May 26; at 3 p.m. Advance
