    The Witches

    YAT will next meet at St Peter & St Paul Church Hall, Teddington from 7.30pm on Monday 29th January 2018 where we will be holding a discussion and introduction evening for our Spring 2018 production, The Witches.

    SYNOPSIS:
    "My darling boy, you won't last very long in this world if you don't know how to spot a witch when you see one..."

    There's nothing a witch hates more than children, and there's no creature deadlier than a witch. The monstrous Grand High Witch has come up with a devilish plan to do away with every child in the world, and all that stands in her way is a young boy and his wise old grandmother. It's going to take all their wit and cunning to save the day - if the witches don't get them first!

    With its large cast of oddball characters, its magic, monsters and mice (yes, mice), we want to stage the ultimate children's fairy tale, scary and grotesque, comedic and heartfelt and, above all, fun!

    For a show with such diverse and colourful characters for both male and female performers, there are no ends to how each role should or could be played! We aim to develop characters in an inventive and playful way to match with the genre. The more eccentric and fairy tale like, the better!

    Alex Farley and Tom Wright
