I'll bet you think March Madness is all about basketball. Nope, not even close. March Madness is a term that will be applied to people who miss Playhouse on Park's current production of The Scarlet Letter. If you're mad because you thought I was going to talk about basketball, come talk to me, I'll be at the corner of Get Over It Street and Cry Me A River Avenue.
Why watch a bunch of guys trying to put a ball in a hoop? You could be watching a talented cast of actors in a slam dunk performance of The Scarlet Letter. The story centers on beautiful Hester Prynne and her affair with a prominent man in town. Young Hester is forced to wear the scarlet letter "A" on her bosom, which stands for adultery. Throw in a love child, A husband back from the dead, overwhelming guilt and the relentless pressure from the townsfolk to learn the identity of Hester's lover and you've got two hours of nothing but net!
There are just four more performances of the Scarlet Letter: Thursday, March 17th at 7:30pm. Friday, March 18th at 8:00pm. Saturday, March 19th at 8:00pm. Sunday, March 20th at 2:00pm. Call the box office, 860-523-5900 x 10 for tickets or purchase them online at http://www.playhouseonpark.org/. So avoid March Madness and come see The Scarlet Letter.
In closing I'd just like to say there's no bosoms in basketball. Swish!
