Prices for students, veterans, seniors, professors and CCHS members are $10. They can be ordered online at Facebook.com/perennialtheatre, reserved by calling 937-896-1511 or purchased at the museum during regular hours on Mondays and Tuesdays.

As the production is outside, attendees are reminded to dress accordingly.

The play focuses on the inconsistencies of the Salem witch trials and the extreme behavior that can result from dark desires and hidden agendas of a divided population.
