I wasn’t sure what I was going into, and I’m glad!
My overall impression
I was walking out of this show saying “Y’know, I’ve seen a lot of really good modern theatre with fun scripts, good material, and poignant stuff.” But WITCHES has a GORGEOUS, lush, poetic script with beautiful imagery delivered with pitch-perfect poise, grace, and style by Lisa Wyatt – it was a reminder of what great classical theatre done right felt like. A simple yet evocative set, great direction by Kate Motzenbacker, and fun use of props and audio (allowing nuanced reactions from the sole actress in the show), WHY WE BECOMEWITCHES was a surprise of truly great theatre this evening. I cannot recommend it enough!
