Writers Theatre From Page to Stage Lecture
In the world premiere play Witch by Jen Silverman at Writers Theatre, the Devil visits Elizabeth in the small town of Edmonton to offer her a deal—and her unexpected response puts the events of this smart modern fable into motion. Throughout history, humankind has been captivated by stories of temptation or torment by the Devil, who is presented by turns as charismatic, comedic and terrifying—sometimes all at once.
As the weather turns colder and Halloween approaches, join us for this From Page to Stage event as Bobby Kennedy, Director of New Work & Dramaturgy at Writers Theater, delves into the history of the Devil as we know it, across cultures and contexts, to examine our fascination with the complex battle of good vs. evil.
Seating is limited. RSVP at Writers Theatre:
