About the Show
Written by Ray Bradbury
Directed by Charles Rome Smith
Ray Bradbury's best-selling science fiction masterpiece about a future without books takes on a chillingly realistic dimension in this theatrical adaptation, written by the legendary author himself. Montag (D.B. Sweeney), a regimented fireman in charge of burning the forbidden volumes, befriends a young girl and her grandfather who dare to read. Suddenly he finds himself a hunted fugitive, forced to choose between his personal safety and intellectual freedom. Utilizing special effects, large screen projections and a cast of 17, the drama comes vividly to life.
