Thomas Jefferson Classical Academy: A Challenge Foundation Academy, is pleased to present “The Devil and Daniel Webster,” Friday and Saturday evenings, April 22 and 23 at 7 p.m., and a Sunday matinee April 24, at 1:30 p.m.
“The Devil and Daniel Webster” is Stephen Vincent Benet’s classic retelling of the Faust legend with a decidedly American twist. What happens when Jabez Stone, a subsistence farmer in Cross Corners, N.H., makes a deal with ‘Old Scratch’ for money and success? Can America’s greatest statesman and lawyer do battle with the Devil himself for Stone’s soul, or will the Devil have his due?
