Originally a 1984 novel by John Updike, the story was famously brought to the screen in the 1987 dark fantasy comedy film directed by George Miller, starring Jack Nicholson, Cher, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Susan Sarandon.
In the sleepy New England town of Eastwick, three smart, sharp, and slightly supernatural divorcees find themselves trapped in the monotony of small-town life. Enter Darryl Van Horne — mysterious, magnetic, and unapologetically outrageous. Darkly funny, deliciously subversive, and packed with showstopping numbers, The Witches of Eastwick is a bewitching musical thrill ride — proving that sometimes, sisterhood is the strongest magic of all.
Neglected Musicals is a theatre initiative dedicated to presenting musical theatre that has never (or rarely) been seen in Australia. The musicals are presented with scripts in hand, and with piano accompaniment after only a day’s rehearsal.
