Synopsis

Lost, listless and lonely, Poppy suddenly finds herself transported to - well, she's not quite sure where, when, or why she is. All she knows is the sun stopped rising this morning and she's trapped in a witch-catching cage. Rumor has it the last witch in the world has just died, but that hasn't stopped the locals from trying to find someone to blame. Poppy must join a ragtag group of dullards, cowards and schemers to find a way to save the world and get back home, assuming home is still where she left it.

This reading will be performed in English.

CIMIENTOS presents texts with visionary craftsmanship. At the core of the program, Cimientos aims to curate work that is diverse and inclusive. Twenty-two years ago, IATI Theater began a steadfast commitment to the playwright. Since then, hundreds of playwrights have graced our program.

Cimientos, Spanish for “foundations,” now calls upon the most important member of the developmental process: the audience. From June 8th to June 12th, we will present 10 plays that are now primed for a public reception. We welcome you to help us make these plays all they can be.
