Kissing the witch

'They say she gives you one long look and your life hangs in the balance. But they say so many things about her, they can't all be true.'

A potent brew of passion, ambition, and courage, Kissing the Witch cracks open the stories we know and love to see what's really going on beneath the cloaks and crowns. Journey through time and tradition as five fantastical stories weave a tapestry of love, lust and everything in between.

This European premiere was presented by The Corps Ensemble with support from Phizzfest - Phibsborough Community & Arts Festival & The Bohemian bar and written by Emma Donoghue, Oscar-nominated writer of 'Room'.

European Premiere: October 29 - November 9 2019, The Bohemian Theatre
