A CLASSIC TALE OF COURAGE

Hester Prynne dares to strive for a better life for herself and her daughter. Kate Hamill (Pride and Prejudice, Little Women), one of American theater’s most celebrated contemporary playwrights, reimagines Nathaniel Hawthorne’s classic tale of courage. This world premiere, directed by Shelley Butler (Beautiful: The Carol King Musical, A Doll’s House Part 2), showcases the strength of a woman who will not let the rules of an unjust society define her.

THIS PERFORMANCE CONTAINS: brief partial nudity, violence, scenes of self-harm, adult situations, and haze effects. While the public performances of The Scarlet Letter will include brief nudity, the student matinees will not.
