October 1 - October 31, 2010

Ray Bradbury's stage adaptation of his best- selling novel analyzes the conflicting natures of good and evil. In this fantasy thriller, two 13-year-old boys have a harrowing experience with a nightmarish traveling carnival that comes to their Midwestern town just in time for Halloween. The carnival's leader is the mysterious "Mr. Dark" who bears a tattoo for each person he has lured into a deadly devotion to the circus. Mr. Dark's malevolent presence is countered by that of Will's father, who fearlessly battles evil forces to save the souls of the impressionable teens.
