"2025 Salem Witch Trial" by Gretchen Wylder

Based on the true story of a tarot-reading lesbian forced from her home by Christian neighbors likely in a cult, Gretchen Wylder's darkly comedic one-woman show (Spookies Award for “Best Solo Show” at Edinburgh Fringe ‘25) explores witches as healers, the patriarchal systems that burned them, and the modern dangers of organised religion. Living a double life – reading tarot in Salem while living in a creepy cottage town run by zealots – her personal horror show becomes a fierce reclamation of spirituality. Reinterpreting Biblical women’s stories and exposing the ongoing persecution of the divine feminine, all while trying not to get burned at the stake.
