Armed with a cup of menstrual blood and a digital ouija board, Andy and Evie meet in the forest to hex Evie’s uncle. They’ve been talking to a dead witch online, she’s given them a spell but asked for a pretty big favour in return. What could possibly go wrong? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Calling on the almighty spectre of the Witch, MORAL PANIC is an unsettling hallucination, an occult thriller and a very dark comedy. 

 

"To get straight to it – Moral Panic is powerful, brilliant, must-see theatre."

"Fierce, surprising, funny, and deeply affecting"

 

Chris Hosking, Theatre People

 

"This chaotic middle wreaked havoc on my body - at times there seemed to be an infectious roaring as darkness and shame spilled across the stage; at others, I felt my eyes watering, my breathing interrupted."
