Now, about the show:
The Welkin by Lucy Kirkwood
Directed by Nelson Barre
Rural Suffolk, 1759. As the country waits for Halley's Comet, Sally Poppy is sentenced to hang for a heinous murder. When she claims to be pregnant, a jury of twelve matrons are taken from their housework to decide whether she's telling the truth, or simply trying to escape the noose. With only midwife Lizzy Luke prepared to defend the girl, and a mob baying for blood outside, the matrons wrestle with their new authority and the devil in their midst.
Payment for tickets will be through Venmo and we will reserve the tickets on November 1, 2026.
