Witch
Music and Lyrics by Matt Conner
Book and Lyrics by Stephen Gregory Smith From the dawn of time, women have been demonized, feared and objectified whenever their power challenged the traditional order. Weaving a thread from the Salem Witch trials through the zeitgeist of the #MeToo movement and modern day politics, this world premiere musical examines the complex and compelling stories of women who’ve been labeled as witches throughout the centuries.
