...slapstick farce, heartrending melodrama and boy's own tale of danger. Big River, which started in regional theaters and seems likely to become a standard there, deserves its place on Broadway. It is gentle, thoughtful, slightly old-fashioned and much cleaner than the back of Huckleberry's perennially unwashed neck...
