Ubiquitous Theater presents Kissing the Witch – Old Tales in New Skins, a play by Emma Donoghue –
directed by Margaret M. Smith

The play is a poetic retelling of several European folk tales that explore the relationship between our insistent production of the marginalized “other” — in this case, the witch — our terror and gratitude at what we have wrought, and the willingness of our creation to bear the mantle of scapegoat and messenger to the gods. Like all very good theater, speaks the truth clearly and well, with generosity of spirit, warning, great wit and forgiveness. For these “others” to survive at all, their understanding is of necessity so deep that it is capable of forgiving even the worst crimes against body and soul. Furthermore, it is one that can deeply inform the lives of any who will listen.
