CoHo Clown CoHort Presents WITCH HUNT

By:

CoHo Clown CoHort Presents WITCH HUNT  Image WITCH HUNT*, a new comedic work in progress from the CoHo Clown CoHort, is influenced by the Puritan work ethic, the Federalist Papers, current events, and also a famous play (kind of, but not really). WITCH HUNT asks,

How did the Puritan work ethic inform our social and political institutions? How have these systems served to repress creativity? And most importantly, who can beat Satan at musical chairs?!? With extreme physical comedy and minimal dialogue, the CoHo Clown Cohort playfully examines the thrilling boundary between repression and freedom.

*The Fertile Ground Festival guide lists WITCH HUNT by the name of that famous play mentioned above, but it's really called WITCH HUNT, we swear.
