An all-star production of Christopher Fry's world famous play to celebrate the 80th birthday of one of England's major dramatists. A witch-hunt would seem to be an unlikely background for a romance. But is the beautiful and mysterious Jennet, fleeing for her life, really a witch? Is the disenchanted soldier Thomas Mendip really a murderer or is he gallantly offering his life to save the woman with whom he finds himself falling hopelessly in love? The Mayor's parlour in the little market town of Cool Clary is the battle ground on which love, lust, greed, laughter and tears fight for supremacy.
