8 p.m. – "Mother Hicks" opens at Three Rivers Community Players, 15526 Millard Road, Three Rivers. Set in southern Illinois during the Great Depression, this play is about three outsiders – a foundling girl known only as Girl, a deaf boy who is eloquent in the language of his silence and an eccentric recluse, Mother Hicks, who is suspected of being a witch. The tale, told with poetry and sign language, chronicles the journeys of these three to find themselves and each other in a troubled time. Provocative productions throughout North America have revealed the power and appeal of this play, which will be presented Feb. 13, 14, 20 and 21 at 8 p.m. and on Feb. 15 and 22 at 2 p.m. For ticket information, call Beam Sound and VIdeo at 279-6251.
