<p>5f, 5m, 1 non-specific, expandable to 33+ </p><p>(any gender can play any role)</p><p></p><p>Welcome to Salem Village. 1692. It's a bad time to visit. Here, wealthy landowners want your land, local magistrates want your confession, unpopular reverends want your respect but more importantly your firewood, and everyone wants someone to be punished for something. Meanwhile, several local children try to make sense of a hysteria they find themselves at the center of.</p><p></p><p>Matt Cox, creator of Puffs, has written a darkly comedic, yet (mostly) historically accurate take on the Salem Witch Trials and all the (mostly) historically accurate horrors which may occur when populism runs rampant, injustice is a day to day occurrence, and a rigid religious minority sets the laws of the land. You know, old timey problems. A companion, or an alternative, to a certain other Salem play you probably read in high school.</p><p></p><p>For performance licensing, visit UproarTheatrics.com</p>
