| “... they carved no
hopeful verse upon his tombstone, for his dying hour was gloom.” --Young Goodman Brown
To kick off Hawthornucopia, Metropolitan Playhouse presents a reading, followed by a celebratory reception for the third annual festival of new works inspirecd by the life and literature an American author. First presented at the theater in 2001, Salem follows Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story of witchcraft and worry, “Young Goodman Brown.” When a virtuous young man spurns the Devil and returns to his the town he was raised in, how exactly can he tell who is naughty and who is nice? |
