This autumn the Everyman welcomes back Out of Joint for a gripping and haunting new play about sex, fear, religion and magic. Jane Wenham: The Witch of Walkern is written by B.A.F.T.A.-winning writer Rebecca Lenkiewicz and is at the Hope Street venue from Tuesday 27th to Saturday 31st October.

Set in Walkern in 1712 after decades free from witch hunts, Walkern’s cunning woman Jane Wenham is blamed for a tragic death – and charged with witchcraft. A terrifying ordeal begins, as the village is torn between those who want to save her life, and those who claim to want to save her soul.
