Published:

CHADRON – The Theatre Department at Chadron State College will perform The Children’s Hour from April 24 to 26 at 7 p.m. and April 27 at 2 p.m. in Memorial Hall’s Black Box Theatre.

Tickets are free and open to the public on the Theatre web page at https://www.csc.edu/academics/theatre/. Reserved seating is encouraged as seats are limited.

Director of the play and Theatre adjunct faculty member David Craven said The Children’s Hour is a relevant play that discusses consequences.

“The Children’s Hour is a drama written by Lillian Hellman in 1934. It shows what can happen when someone believes a lie and spreads it without verifying the facts first. The consequences for our actions cannot be reversed, and we should be mindful of our choices,” Craven said.
