Join Chasing Phantom for a rollicking ride down "Big River," the 1985 musical based on Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" that ran for 1,005 performances. My buddy, Christopher Haushalter, and I rave about Roger Miller's score, consider whether it's a show that requires racial recontextualization, and remember when John Goodman was just a curly-haired young lunk railing against the "Guv'ment." Chris saw the original production back in the day and recounts his first trip to Broadway back when NYC was a scary den of iniquity instead of a glitzy overpriced tourist destination.
