Canyon Crest Academy Envision Theatre in San Diego will present The Children's Hour, directed by Jeremy Sewell from today, October 24th - November 2th, 2013 at the CCA Black Box Theatre.

THE STORY: One of the great successes of distinguished writer Lillian Hellman. A serious and adult play about two women who run a school for girls. After a malicious youngster starts a rumor about the two women, the rumor soon turns to scandal. As the young girl comes to understand the power she wields, she sticks by her story, which precipitates tragedy for the women. It is later discovered that the gossip was pure invention, but it is too late. Irreparable damage has been done.

Canyon Crest Academy delivers not only an outstanding education but has the unique Envision arts program supported by donation dollars. Envision utilizes working artists as instructors. These professional artists work with the visual and performing arts students to deliver an outstanding arts experience at a professional level. CCA's theater program has won numerous awards and recognition and performances are known as above and beyond a 'high school theater show'. The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation is a parent-led 501(c)(3) organization providing fantastic opportunities across academics, athletics, and the arts, and creating an environment where students can thrive.
