The witchfinder

Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

MANNINGTREE, 1645. In a time of civil war and uncertainty, paranoia runs rife. Whispered rumours of witchcraft spread. Suspicion turns to accusation as a local beggar woman is denounced as a witch. And a young witchfinder begins to come into his own —Matthew Hopkins, the self-appointed WITCHFINDER GENERAL.

The events that followed would see one hundred men and women executed for witchcraft in England's deadliest witch hunt.

THE WITCHFINDER is an unsettling look at one of England's darkest moments and explores the rise of fanaticism, resistance, and legacy. Following a successful abridged preview at University College London, the full-length piece is premiering at McQueen's Theatre.

Performing June 6, 7, and 8 at 7pm. Doors open at 6:30pm. Latecomers may not be admitted. Runtime approximately 2.5 hours including interval.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: religious themes, torture, references to sex, references to abuse, sexism, & death. We strongly recommend this show for audience members over 12 years old.
