The Blakefield Players present The Diviners
Wheeler Hall - Creaghan Ctr for Performing Arts - Creag. PAC
The Blakefield Players will present their fall play, The Diviners, in the Creaghan Performing Arts Center between October 20–23, 2022.
A powerful drama set in 1930s Indiana that tells the story of 14-year-old Buddy, whose life changed forever with the death of his mother by drowning and his own near-death experience. This has given Buddy a powerful fear of water, even as a mysterious aquatic affinity gives him powers as a “water witch," with the ability to divine wells and predict the rain. He befriends C.C., a back-sliding preacher who has left the pulpit in Kentucky that he inherited from his forefathers to find an honest living for himself. When their worlds collide, it has devastating consequences.
