THE CHILDREN'S HOUR by Lillian Hellman
The Children's Hour is a compelling and thought-provoking stage play
Set in an all-girls boarding school run by two women, Karen Wright and Martha Dobie. An angry student, Mary Tilford, runs away from the school and to avoid being sent back she tells her wealthy and influential grandmother that the two headmistresses are having a lesbian affair.
The accusation proceeds to destroy the women's careers, relationships and lives.
