Cry Innocent returns this week

Cry Innocent: The People Verses Bridget Bishop returns this week for the October season.

This presentation is a great way to get into the minds of Salem residents who were involved in the Witch Trials of 1692. The audience is the jury, and the cast portrays characters who were involved in the pretrial of Bridget Bishop in 1692.

Whether you assume Bridget's innocence or presume her guilt, Cry Innocent just might change your mind, or at least how you think about 17th century Puritan society.

Shows start on October 9 and run through October 31. Monday-Friday showtimes 1:30, 2:30. Saturday and Sunday 1:30, 2:30, 3:30, and additional shows may be added in the evenings on the weekends. For more information, and to purchase tickets online, visit Gordon.edu/historyalive.
