About the production
Talene Monahon’s wickedly funny prequel to The Crucible follows the four girls at the heart of the Salem witch trials, including 11-year-old Abigail Williams, as her new job working for 60-year-old farmer John Proctor turns their world of poppets and butter churns into something unexpected.
“...the theatrical magic conjured by director Kimberly Senior through performances, not props.”
— Independent RI
“Kimberly Senior casts these four roles beautifully and elicits stunning performances from all of them.”
— Theater Mirror
“Kimberly Senior directs this unusual examination of pre-Salem witch trials; deftly weaving the narrative around a muted set piece by Michael McGarty that is also not without surprises.”
— EDGE Media Network
“The exquisite ending will take your breath away”
— The Westerly Sun
“Warm, funny, poignant”
— The Independent
