15 - The Children's Hour by Lillian Hellman

from Play Ground · host Nancy Netherwood & Sam Webber

Send us Fan MailThis 1930s play is about two single women who run a girls' school together, and how their lives are brought crashing down when a student accuses them of lesbianism. We discuss the play's treatment of queer issues, its place (or not) on today's stage, and the eerily accurate depiction of lockdown life in Act 3.Have some feedback?
