CANCELLED: Vinegar Tom

The safety and well-being of our community is of the utmost importance to us. In light of recent State protocols for coronavirus (COVID-19), the College of the Arts is canceling all events, productions, concerts, and exhibitions for the Spring 2020 semester. We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

With potent images of cruel injustices, Vinegar Tom examines gender and power relationships against the backdrop of a seventeenth-century witch hunt. It tells the story of two women living on the fringes of acceptable norms who are named as witches by a man they have spurned sexually. Playwright Caryl Churchill illustrates how marginalized women were often villainized for little reason other than their non-conformity, drawing parallels to contemporary events.
