If We Really Were Witches is a comedy about witch hunts. Yeah, that's right.
Mildred, Agnes and Suds are real witches who travel through time and space to show injustice a thing or two. They are summoned to Newtown by a ghost to rescue Obediently Snead and other innocent townsfolk from execution. They come up against the Pricks of Puritanical Piety Guild and Social Club-- a rabid group of witch hunters who use witch prickers (and other "modern science”) to test their victims.
This 60-minute fast-paced comedy aims to give power back to the disempowered. Most importantly, it asks the question everyone seemed to forget to ask: "If they really were witches, wouldn't they just cast a spell and get away?"
