Witch at The Edge Off-Broadway Theater

Dates: 9/10/2026 - 10/10/2026


Share
Written by Jen Silverman and directed by Idle Muse Ensemble Member Libby Beyreis, Witch follows a charming devil who arrives in the quiet village of Edmonton to bargain for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth, having been labeled a witch and cast out by the town, proves to be an unexpectedly difficult target, leading to unexpected passions and alliances that forever change the village. The cast includes Mara Kovacevic as Elizabeth, Nathaniel Kohlmeier as Scratch, Cameron Austin Brown, Xavier Lagunas, Stephen Dunn, and Caty Gordon. This inventive retelling of a Jacobean drama is a sharp, subversive fable that debates how much our souls are worth when hope is hard to come by.

Review: Idle Muse Theatre Company's WITCH at The Edge Off-Broadway Theater

September 14, 2026

“What do you want?” It’s the question at the heart of Witch, Idle Muse Theatre Company’s fall production. Adapted by playwright Jen Silverman from the Jacobean drama The Witch of Edmonton, the play transforms a centuries-old tale of ambition, jealousy, witchcraft, and desire into a provocative contemporary meditation on what people will risk to get what they want.
