The Children’s Hour Presented by MainStage (Sept 20 – Oct 5)

A compelling drama that sheds light on loyalty, intolerance, and the power of gossip… The Children’s Hour is presented by MainStage Sept 20 – Oct 5.

By Lillian Hellman
Directed by Lindsey Humphries

An unruly student at a rural Massachusetts boarding school falsely accuses her two female teachers of engaging in a romantic relationship. The two accused women must navigate the truth among the lies as they fight to save their reputations, their families, and the school itself. But as the schoolgirl’s rumor escalates to scandal and the outraged community quickly withdraws all of their students, a witch hunt ensues that ultimately leads to terrible and tragic consequences.
