I look forward to sharing this evening of laughter and celebration with our viewers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are excited to partner with CNN in this annual tradition of celebrating as well as poking fun at a remarkable artist,&#8221; said Deborah F. Rutter, Kennedy Center President. &#8220;The Mark Twain Prize is a perfect fit for CNN because it showcases a quintessential Washington, D.C. event that brings together politicians from both sides of the aisle, performers, and audiences of all backgrounds for an evening of laughter. This new joint venture extends our reach as well as broadens CNN&#8217;s programming &#8211; a true win-win in a city where that phrase is not so common!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is America&#8217;s living memorial to President Kennedy. It is the nation&#8217;s busiest performing arts facility and annually hosts more than 2,000 performances for audiences totaling nearly 2 million; Center-related touring productions and television and radio broadcasts welcome 40 million more. The Center presents performances of music, dance, and theater supports artists in the creation of new work, and serves the nation as a leader in arts education.<\/p>\n<p><em>The 24th Mark Twain Prize for American Humor<\/em> celebrating Adam Sandler will stream live for pay TV subscribers via <a href=\"http:\/\/CNN.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN.com<\/a> and CNN OTT and mobile apps, or CNNgo where available.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1679568291\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CNN will exclusively broadcast the 24th Mark Twain Prize for American Humor ceremony celebrating Adam Sandler, in partnership with The John F.
