About the Show

Caryl Churchill’s Vinegar Tom, an acclaimed drama about morality and betrayal, tells the story of two farm women – young and sexually independent Alice Noakes and her outcast mother, Joan – who are accused of witchcraft by vengeful neighbors looking for ways to justify their misfortune.

Now in its fourth year, The Civic Theatre of Allentown’s Resident Company program gives young theater professionals an opportunity to spend eight months working in a professionally staffed theater company. They serve as an integral part of the company, perform in Civic productions, and work with the professional staff to learn the craft and business of theater. This year’s Company, four young theatre professionals from across the country, is the first to have undertaken the task of producing a full-scale production.

Vinegar Tom contains adult themes and language and is recommended for mature audiences.
