"When I was growing up I always loved the witch characters in film and animation because I thought they were powerful, beautiful, flawed and true individuals," comments author Harmony France. "I wrote this cabaret to celebrate those often misunderstood characters. It will be an outrageous, exciting, fun evening with a cast that is not only a powerhouse collection of high- caliber actresses, but are also powerful, beautiful and truly individual women. It is about time for this coven to hit audiences in Chicago!"
