A new play based on a classic story. Hester Prynne has been sentenced to wear a scarlet letter. Her young daughter Pearl asks questions Hester can’t easily answer. And then a familiar stranger comes to town… This adaptation offers fresh interpretations, an expanded cast of characters, and new insights.

Appropriate for adult audiences as well as high school. During the production run at UT Austin, two performances were given for high school classes. Several audience members commented on how much they enjoyed the play and that 'maybe they should read the book after all'.
