with John Stratton, James Laurenson, Michael Pennington and Cathryn Harrison
In the year 1612, nine women, two men and a child were 'taken for witches' in the Forest of Pendle in the Countie of Lancaster. After months of confinement together in a dungeon of Lancaster Castle, ten were brought to trial, convicted and hanged. This stark story opens with a 16-year-old girl Alizon, a crow - and a pedlar on his way to Colne Fair.
