The story is set in an all-girls boarding school run by two women, Karen Wright and Martha Dobie. When a malicious student, Mary Tilford, accuses the two women of having a lesbian relationship, their lives are turned upside down. The rumor spreads quickly and the community turns against them, causing their school to close down and their personal and professional reputations to be ruined. As the truth is revealed, the audience is forced to confront issues of homophobia, bigotry, and the power of lies. The Children's Hour is a powerful and thought-provoking play that explores themes that are still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
