SUMMARY:RE: Living History
DESCRIPTION:Mark Twain is the inspiration for Stephanie Syjuco‘s courtyard installation\, To the Person Sitting in Darkness\, which takes its design from the author’s bitter suggestion for a flag representing the new Philippine Province in 1901: an American flag re-designed with black stripes rather than white\, skull and crossbones rather than stars. Until now\, Twain’s flag has never been produced.⁣ \nActor Richard Garey\, who regularly plays Twain at Hannibal’s Planter’s Barn Theater\, brings his portrayal to CAM\, giving a perspective of the writer that few audiences ever encounter: the politically engaged\, anti-imperialist Mark Twain. For the performance\, Garey remains in character from the moment he enters the museum until he exits. He also follows one of Twain’s guiding aphorisms: “The greatest curse is ignorance\, and its only cure is humor.” \nSupport for this program is provided by Missouri Humanities as part of their commitment to a more thoughtful\, informed\, and civil society.
