Fahrenheit 451 takes us to a world where books are burned, ideas are feared, and firemen make fires. In this 24th century drama Guy Montag, a young fireman, enjoys his job of setting illegally-owned books and the homes of their owners on fire. But after seeing a woman willing to die for her books he begins to have an intense personal struggle about these books and what they might contain that is so dangerous. Written just after World War II, and in the same vein as Animal Farm and 1984, Fahrenheit 451 will thrill you and chill you. Fahrenheit 451 is a Theatre for Young Audiences Production by the Civic Academy and Company.

South Bend Civic Theatre is at 403 North Main Street, South Bend, IN.
South Bend Civic Theatre (SBCT) was founded in 1957 by two University of Notre Dame graduates who believed community theatre should be an important part of this area’s culture, and who also believed that living in our community were aspiring actors and actresses who needed to show and form their talents. While early performances were held in homes, hotels, and various locations at Notre Dame, SBCT staged most of its productions after 1968 at the Firehouse, a local historic landmark located on Portage Ave, in South Bend’s historic Near Northwest neighborhood.Beginning in 2000, SBCT began staging larger productions outside the Firehouse, and exploring options for a new permanent venue. In January 2007, the beginning of the Civic’s 50th Anniversary year, SBCT celebrated the opening of its new home in the heart of downtown South Bend, in what had formerly been a First Church of Christ Scientist. The historic domed structure is an architectural wonder and sealed SBCT’s position as a pillar of the region’s art community.
