Description
SSCC Theatre presents ‘The Diviners’
The compelling production takes the stage November 3 – 5
SSCC Theatre presents “The Diviners,” by Jim Leonard, Jr., playing November 3-5 in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on Southern State Community College’s Central Campus, 100 Hobart Drive, Hillsboro. The Friday and Saturday performances begin at 7:30 p.m.; the Sunday matinee begins at 3:30 p.m.
In a quaint Indiana town during the 1930s, this gothic prairie tale revolves around a heartbreaking event that unfolds in the life of Buddy Layman (played by Payton Taylor), a burdened, but bewitching boy engaged in water divination for a nearby farmer. Buddy forms a bond with C.C. Showers (Shawn Thomsen), a traveler passing through the town. Buddy is deeply moved by both the arrival of the stranger, and C.C. is touched by Buddy’s own poignant story. This includes Buddy’s near-drowning experience during his childhood and the subsequent loss of his mother in the same tragic incident.
