Time: 1600’s, but also now. The dialogue is contemporary. No accents required.
Place: Britain, but also here. In this witty and thought-provoking play, a charming devil arrives in the quiet village of Edmonton to bargain for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth should be his easiest target, having been labeled a “witch” and cast out by the town, but her soul is not so readily bought…
Rehearsals will begin mid July and will be 1-2 times a week until September, when they will be 2-3 times per week.
Performances are at The Sid Williams Theatre, Courtenay, Sept 30-Oct 4.
