The Lyric presents THE WITCHES OF EASTWICK
A musical comedy by JOHN DEMPSEY and DANA P ROWE Originally produced on the London Stage by Cameron Mackintosh All authorised performance materials are also supplied by MTI www.mtishows.co.uk
From the company that brought you “Kinky Boots” and “Sunshine on Leith”, the Lyric are back and they are ready to cast a spell on audiences with the comedic musical, The Witches of Eastwick. Set in small-town America, three divorcees, frustrated by the constant scrutiny and disapproval of their buttoned-up neighbours, fantasise about their ideal man. Coincidentally, or maybe not, the brash, vulgar and, on the face of it, distinctly unappealing Darryl Van Horne arrives in the neighbourhood. It doesn’t take long before he uses his charms to release their creative energy along with their inhibitions! However the women are soon regretting what they wished for as things begin to spiral out of control. But hell hath no fury like three women scorned and pretty soon Alex, Sukie and Jane use their newly discovered powers to teach their depraved seducer a lesson.
Recommended for age 14+ owing to some of the themes and language
