Wow! What a treat! Loved tonight's performance of Coven.
A great education about the infamous witch trials in Pendle Hill.
Congrats to the performers, musicians, director, stage workers and staff.
Go and see it before it's sold out.

Gates of Hell, Giacomo del Pò, ca. 1703–08. Princeton University Art Museum.
A horned demon drags a soul to hell as flames and shadows swirl. Del Pò’s Baroque vision evokes divine justice through myth and chiaroscuro.
How did hell’s imagery shape Baroque morality?
