‘Witch’ Opens At Clackamas Community College Feb. 26 (Photo)
- 02/20/26
OREGON CITY – The Clackamas Community College Theatre Department will present Jen Silverman’s “Witch” as its winter mainstage production.
What if you were offered a deal with the Devil? Mischief is afoot in the sleepy village of Edmonton, and the fate of the world is at stake in this smart modern fable. When the emotionally conflicted son of the local lord and an ambitious newcomer come into opposition, help presents itself to them in the same guise – as the Devil himself. But while these two young men take advantage of the Devil’s bargain to accomplish their own questionable ends, someone else in town stands her ground – Elizabeth, an outcast whom everyone believes to be a witch. Clever, wickedly funny and full of sharp insights, the play asks: What do we truly value, and what are we willing to trade to get it? How much are our souls worth when hope is hard to come by?
A mesmerizing drama that’s filled with unexpected humor and feels as contemporary in theme as today’s headlines, “Witch” celebrates the power of imagination, identity and the bonds that connect us – even beyond this world.
Directed by Allison Moon, “Witch” features a dynamic ensemble of CCC students and staff, with scenic and lighting design by Chris Whitten, prop design by Shelly Mortimer and costumes by Aiden McFarland.
“Witch” runs Feb. 26-March 8, Thursdays and Fridays at 7:30 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays at 2:30 p.m., and Friday, March 6, at 10 a.m. in the Niemeyer Osterman Theatre, 19600 Molalla Ave., Oregon City. An opening night reception will take place Feb. 26 at 6:30 p.m. in the Niemeyer Center lobby.
Tickets are $16 for adults, $14 for seniors (62+) and free for all students. Tickets are discounted by $1 if purchased online. Visit www.clackamas.edu/theatre or call 503-594-3153 for reservations.
