Becky Nurse of Salem by Sarah Ruhl. Directed by Kathy Blandin.
Becky Nurse of Salem is a contemporary dark comedy which follows Becky, a modern-day descendant of accused witch Rebecca Nurse. Becky, who works at the local witch museum, seems to be dogged by bad luck. Is it a curse from her past? Or her inability to navigate her present? Looking for love and redemption through spells, pills, and a bartender named Bob, Becky is a contemporary pilgrim. A play about the legacy of misogyny, witchcraft, and even Arthur Miller, Becky Nurse is a truth-teller for our times.
