J.B. Priestley’s classic morality play runs Sept. 12 to 15 in Fishers
The Hyperion Players will present J.B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls Sept. 12 to 15 at The Switch Theatre in Fishers.
The action of the play occurs in an English industrial city, where a young girl commits suicide and an eminently respectable British family is subject to a routine inquiry in connection with the death. An inspector calls to interrogate the family, and during the course of his questioning, all members of the group are implicated in the girl’s undoing.
The play was first performed in the Soviet Union in 1945, before enjoying a successful UK run starring Ralph Richardson and Alec Guinness.
An Inspector Calls is the first play of Hyperion’s third season. Coming in October is the hair-raising thriller The Woman in Black, followed by The 39 Steps in March 2025 and Rocket Man in May 2025.
An Inspector Calls is scheduled for four performances:
- Thursday, Sept. 12, 7:30 p.m.
- Friday, Sept. 13, 7:30 p.m.
- Saturday, Sept. 14, 7:30 p.m.
- Sunday, Sept. 15, 2:30 p.m.
All performances will be at The Switch Theatre, 10029 E. 126th St., Fishers (located inside Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy).
The show will run two hours with one 15-minute intermission. Tickets cost $15 and can be purchased at hyperionplayers.com/tickets or at the door.
