Synopsis
September 4 - 13, 2026 Fridays 7:30pm · Saturdays 3:00pm & 7:30pm · Sundays 3:00pm
“discover here the essential nature of one of the strangest and most awful chapters in human history.”
Rumors swirl across Salem: women are practicing witchcraft. When a group of young girls begin accusing townsfolk of devilish acts, fear and self-righteousness turn to mass hysteria. Arrests are made, and a frenzy of paranoia and violence follows. Compelled by fear and opportunity, neighbor is pitted against neighbor. The accused are forced to defend themselves against a zealous court unwilling to listen. But the towns’ hunger for retribution only grows as arrests and executions amass.
