Two-way staged reading of ‘The Adventures of Tom Sawyer’ at the Adoue fountain with the Cie La Pierre d'Amyon

Travel down the Mississippi in the 19th century with The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, a mischievous boy who prefers adventure to school and mischief to obedience. With his inseparable friend Huckleberry Finn, Tom defies the rules, explores desert islands, becomes a pirate and a thief, discovers hidden treasures and triumphs over injustice.
Through Tom's eyes, Mark Twain paints a vivid portrait of childhood, between carelessness and responsibility, vivid imagination and rites of passage to adulthood.

‘Though my book is chiefly intended to entertain boys and girls; I hope it will not, for that reason, be dodged by grown-ups, for I had partly the idea of trying to remind them pleasantly of what they themselves were, what they felt and thought, how they talked, and what strange enterprises they sometimes embarked upon.’
Foreword by Mark Twain.

In the event of bad weather, the event will take place in the Salle des Fêtes in the old Chongnes town hall.
