Details

Summary
This brilliant, unusual adaptation of the classic novel has a decidedly contemporary slant. Although set in Puritan times, it deals with issues which make it almost a feminist deconstruction of the novel even as it preserves the familiar story of Hester Prynne, Roger Chillingworth and Arthur Dimmesdale.
History
The play was originally presented Off Broadway by Classic Stage Company.
