This play of sacrifices and scapegoats is part Greek tragedy, part “The Craft,” part “The Crucible” and 100% the whispered rage of women that transcends generations. In the writing, Kearnan has managed to capture the tone and themes of the piece perfectly: it moves like a secret, like a rumor, like anger, like the great and terrible plans of any group of women that has ever caused heaven and hell at the same time.

This is a stunning play that asks questions about the legitimate use of violence in society. The stage directions and transitions give the ensemble so much freedom to create beautiful and indelible images and soundscapes. It’s a great read and I would love to see a full production!

This script explores sound and voice in an incredibly moving and impactful way. The chorus becomes the landscape of the world itself, giving the audience a sense of the reverberations and echoes of the core action. The second act asks important questions about justice and revenge of both its characters and the audience.
