Bella and the Witch

Inspired by the story of Baba Yaga, "Bella and the Witch" is a dance theater piece by Laurie MacFarlane with props by Martha Schermerhorn and music by Parker Callister. When Bella’s mom sends her on an errand to her mysterious aunt’s house, Bella must use her wits, charm, and even some magic to defeat the witch and return safely home. Called a “bizarre world of witches, moving trees, and stolen light” by City Magazine, "Bella and the Witch" is fast-paced, funny, and just a little bit scary!
