In this modern dark comedy about the ever present “why” behind America’s most famous witch hunt, Elizabeth Proctor finds herself on the wrong side of witchcraft accusations alongside Sarah Good, Bridget Bishop, and Ann Foster in Salem, 1692. They reckon with their faith, fears, and just how much society has suddenly forced them to have in common. Nothing brings people together like a common enemy, but when their enemy is placed directly in the middle of their cell, the rules of society that say women are subservient are quickly abandoned.

ROLES

• Elizabeth Proctor (30’s-40’s – female or non-binary) A woman who loves her God and her husband. Righteous, devoted, walks the straightened arrow. Terrified of making a mistake. Carries more guilt than sin.
• Sarah Goode (20’s – 30’s – female or non-binary) A woman who inherited her late husband’s debts but not her father’s wealth. Society has handed her every short stick in the bundle. She’s noticed.
• Bridget Bishop (40’s-60’s – female or non-binary) A woman whose reputation proceeds her as men in her life wish she’d committed more sins than she did. She is used to being discussed just because she wore that ONE RED PETTICOAT that ONE TIME… Been accused of being a witch before… it’s a vibe she’s got.
• Ann Foster (60’s-80’s – female or non-binary) A woman who was broken long ago. A woman who wants to rest. A woman who deserves to be left alone. A woman who doesn’t say nearly as much as she feels.
• George Burroughs (40’s – 50’s – white, male) A minister. Physically strong, emotionally…not so much. Opinionated. Confident. Obstinate. Wants to do good, but way too slow in his growth and who’s got time for that? No one in that prison cell.
