Boston, mid-17th century: Hester Prynne, dignified and silent, is
led through prison doors to her public shaming by her censorious
Puritan neighbors. Holding her illegitimate child to her breast and
bearing a bright scarlet letter ”A” embroidered on her bodice,
Hester must now struggle to create a new life for herself and her
child in this harsh and unforgiving community. When her missing
spouse reappears and takes up residence in town under an assumed
identity, the stage is set for an explosive confrontation between
the truly moral and the merely religious.
