Betrayal, obsession and redemption provide the backdrop for this compelling drama adapted by Charles Morey from the classic novel of Alexandre Dumas. While unjustly imprisoned, Edmond Dantes befriends a neighboring inmate who bequeaths him an enormous treasure.
Dantes eventually escapes and returns to society disguised as the Count of Monte Cristo with plans to enact his revenge on those who betrayed him. But as Dantes becomes increasingly consumed with his quest for vengeance, he finds himself losing his humanity and any hope of reconciling with the love of his life.
Tickets are required to attend this production. Adult tickets are $10, senior citizens and
non-C of O students are $8 and children are $6.
