The Bean family in Sugar Bean, Florida live under an ancient family curse

The surviving members of the town's founding family have finally reached the end of their rope

And just when things can't possibly get any worse, tragedy strikes as a mysterious and brutal murder takes place in the Bean family home

The crime places "Moses" and "Sisser" in grave danger as "Annabelle", the last in a long-line of so-called "Sugar Witches", attempts to end the curse

Dark family secrets are revealed and unusual passions are ignited as the family confronts madness, truth and the destructive legacy of racism as the spirits of the dead walk the dark swamp, haunting the hearts of all who reside there

The Sugar Witch is a dark, Southern Gothic play that will linger in the minds of the audience long after the curtain falls

"Bewitching!" ~ San Jose Mercury News

"Spellbinding ... a gem of special effects, dead bodies, silent demons, flickering campfires and flying cats ... eerie ... chilling ... moody... embraces gay/lesbian themes as heartily as anything you'll get south of San Francisco ...[a] gender-reversed Sleeping Beauty!" ~ Metro Weekly (Silicon Valley)

"A hauntingly creepy delight ... lyrically written ... a story of decay, violence and transformation ... Li'l Abner meets William Faulkner ... filled with weird, surreal, stageworthy dramatic moments and situations ... a satisfying balance between gothic horror and humor!" ~ Palo Alto Daily News

Winner of "WAVE" Magazine's Theatre Award for "Standout New Work"
