Written in 1970, Vinegar Tom examines gender and power relationships through the lens of the 17th century witchcraft trials in England. The play outlines society's rejection of people with differences - the old, the poor, the single, and the sexually unconventional. Based not on specific historical events but in a period when England's last major witch hunt occurred, the women's offences are petty to a contemporary audience but enough to find themselves accused of witchcraft, an offence that carried a death penalty.| 7 Apr 22 to 8 Apr 22 | The Cockpit Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
