The winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical of the Year, Outstanding Original Score, and Outstanding Book of a Musical, as well as seven Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Lyrics, William Hauptman's Big River brings an American treasure to life with color and nobility. With lyrics by Grammy Award winner Roger Miller, Big River captures the spirit of Mark Twain's classic tale of Huckleberry Finn, America's favorite non-conformist scamp, as he flees the confinements of civilization with his friend Jim, a runaway slave, floating down the Mississippi on a raft.--Cover
