Â鶹ÃÛÌÒAV Theatre Company presents 'Witch,' Oct. 25-Nov. 3
A modern retelling of a Jacobean drama comes to life in Witch, presented by the Â鶹ÃÛÌÒAV Theatre Company (DMTC) Oct. 25-Nov. 3, at the Marlene Boll Theatre inside Detroit’s Boll Family YMCA.
In the quaint village of Edmonton, a mysterious figure with devilish charm appears offering to fulfill the deepest desires of its inhabitants. Elizabeth, a woman ostracized by the village and labeled a “witch,” should prove an easy target, but what unfolds is a captivating dance igniting unexpected passions and forging unlikely alliances.
"We're thrilled to bring this modern, subversive fable to the stage to explore the themes of good versus evil and moral dilemmas in a community facing adversity," said DMTC Managing Director Sarah Rusk. "This show promises to challenge audiences and our student artists in unexpected ways, making it an unforgettable theatrical experience."
"We are excited to welcome Krista Schafer, Artistic Director of Open Book Theatre Company in Trenton, as our guest director for this show," said Mary Elizabeth Valesano, interim chair of the Department of Performing Arts at University of Â鶹ÃÛÌÒAV. "Having Schafer, a professional from such a reputable regional theatre, direct Witch provides an invaluable mentorship experience, allowing our students to learn firsthand from an accomplished artist."
Witch runs six performances across two weekends Oct. 25-Nov. 3 at The Marlene Boll Theatre inside the Boll Family YMCA at 1401 Broadway in Detroit. Purchase tickets online at or by calling the ticket office at 313-993-3270.
