Scripts Uncensored - The Children's Hour

On Sunday, April 27, from 6 pm - 9 pm, the Scripts Uncensored banned scripts reading group will meet for a group reading of Lillian Hellman's The Children's Hour, moderated by Paula Sisk. A discussion of the play, and why some wish for it to be removed from access, follows the reading.

THE STORY:

One lie. Two women. A scandal that could destroy everything. Lillian Hellman's "The Children’s Hour" is an explosive classic that still resonates today. Join us for this thought-provoking evening of drama and discussion.

Set in a girls’ boarding school in the 1930s, this gripping drama centers on the devastating fallout of a malicious lie and explores themes of truth, reputation, and societal expectations. It was groundbreaking in its time and remains urgently relevant.
