[NEohioPAL] Dover Players Announce "The Children's Hour"

[Mark Little]

The Dover Players community theater group celebrates the summer season with
a classic play by Lillian Hellman - The Children's Hour, directed by Sheldon
Lawrence. 

 



      

Lillian Hellman's 

The Children's Hour 

 

 

 

Setting:    A small town in New England in the 1930s. 

Synopsis: Karen Wright and Martha Dobie, two young women, have a private
boarding school for girls.  One of the girls, a real brat, is caught in a
lie and punished.  She runs away from the school and goes to her
grandmother.  She tells her grandmother that Karen and Martha are lesbians
(not true) and the grandmother, without checking, believes her.  She calls
the parents of the other girls, who take their children out of the school.
The truth does come out in the end, but the lives of the two women have been
ruined.

 

Directed by:  Sheldon Lawrence

Stage Manager: Janet Kuss
