An evocative new Southern Gothic comedy comes to life on stage as award-winners Gigi Bermingham and Mamie Gummer team up for the world premiere of The Baptist Witches of Shelbyville, a sharply rendered full-length play by Julie Shavers. The cast includes Gigi Bermingham, Mamie Gummer, Julie Shavers, Angelie Simone, and Ashley Ward.

When eldest daughter Lucinda Moon returns home to her small Tennessee town for the July 4th holiday, she is greeted not only by fireworks but by the same women who shaped her -and the memories she can’t shake. What’s on the family’s porch picnic menu? Dark comedy, tragic poetry, and moments of pure sonic bliss when the Moon family finds their old harmonies. They’re keeping a burger on the grill, and a tumbler of frosé cold, just for you.
