Synopsis

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.

Press Reviews

"Exhilarating and daringly original."
