“Are you a witch, or are you a fairy, or are you the wife of Michael Cleary?” Two puppeteers investigate the curious case of Michael and Bridget Cleary. She’s the victim of the last witch burning in Ireland. He’s the one who walked away. Repeat.

A Note from the Director:
Derek and I welcome you into our home to watch a little puppet show about "the last witch burning in Ireland." We apologize if we say or do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable during your stay. Or not. It is a horror show, after all. We've spent the whole of October doing familiar things like collecting information and building puppets, and unfamiliar things like learning to use camera equipment and rehearsing for an audience we will never see. Sometimes we forget we will be watched. It's a very strange time.
I really wanted to warn you that this show depicts scenes of domestic abuse. This is a serious topic that has touched my life in the past and has come out of nowhere to destroy the lives of others I've known, much like Bridget Cleary, the subject of our show. It isn't always easy to detect the signs of domestic violence in your own home or in others. No matter what the circumstances, if you are receiving abuse, it is never your fault. Do not hesitate to get help from friends, family, and authorities. If you do not feel comfortable reaching out to the police, there are several local organizations who can help.
