Synopsis
Witch by Jen Silverman is a darkly comic play about Frank Thorney, a troubled young man who encounters Elizabeth, a mysterious woman believed to be a witch. Their meeting brings hidden desires, fears, and social tensions to the surface. As the characters struggle with love, power, prejudice, and the need to belong, the play questions who is truly dangerous—the outsider labeled a witch or the society that rejects her.
