BECKY NURSE OF SALEM, a dark contemporary comedy by Sarah Ruhl, follows Becky, a modern-day descendant of accused witch Rebecca Nurse in Salem. 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 for the Lock Her Up era. Struggling with modern life and the legacy of her ancestor, Becky seeks to clear her family's name while navigating personal and societal challenges. The play, known for its mix of humor and drama, delves into themes of history, feminism, and the supernatural. A play about the legacy of misogyny, witchcraft, and even Arthur Miller, Becky Nurse is a truth-teller for our times. Directed by Rebecca Taichman.
