Dancing with the Devil by Libby Massey Dancing With The Devil is a one woman show that tells the tale of Alizon Device, executed for her crimes of witchcraft during the Pendal Witch Hunt of 1612. Was she guilty? Or were the accusations due to cruel misogyny? This show strikes fear, curiosity, rage, and you might leave with more questions than answers. You will see burlesque and cabaret throughout, and you will see herbology taking place on the stage but, most importantly, you will hear the story of a woman that history has tried to erase – this is the story of Alizon Device and her trial for witchcraft.

Idle Idols by Arthur Morris and Wyn Teasdale What happens on a deity’s day off? Rained in, locked down and bored out of their minds. Flick and Cyra have a problem – they need a distraction, and what better way to pass the time than a series of quick-paced comedy sketches and vignettes? What will happen when carefully laid plans go awry, and old arguments resurface? Can these two gods find a way to wait out the storm without killing one another- or worse, breaking up? Filled with the wacky, weird, and wondrous, Idle Idols is the journey of two divine gay disasters learning to find common ground despite their questionable ways of coping.
