Based on Mark Twain's first novel (co-authored with Charles Dudley Warner) MARK TWAIN'S THE GILDED AGE is an original play about Laura Hawkins, an alluring young woman who captivates Washington society as a lobbyist in 1870, and then becomes a national sensation when she takes revenge on the cynical, sexist Confederate officer who robbed her of her innocence. Narrated by Colonel Beriah Sellers, one of Twain's best drawn comic characters, the story exposes a society permeated by corruption, greed, and deceit at every level.
