The Children's Hour Unhinged Theatre By: Lillian Hellman Directed by: Maddy Brown & Aella Rose-Hill Dates: May 9-12 at 7 pm in the Black Box Theater Tickets available at the door A private school for young girls is scandalized when one spiteful student, Mary Tilford, accuses the two young women who run the school of having a lesbian relationship. This explosive drama written by the virtuosic Lillian Hellman made waves when it premiered in 1934. Herself a target of the McCarthy era blacklisting of Hollywood and Broadway artists, to Hellman this was a play about the evil power of slander.
