This may be the biggest
But it is far from the first sacrifice I've made for this house
And I'm sure it won't be the last
But don't fret.
I'm ready.
England, 1640. A war is brewing. Rumours are flying. A household is in crisis... and the Devil's having some fun. For Lady Elizabeth, nothing is more important than protecting her family's legacy and their ancestral home. When that comes under threat, she elicits the help of Agnes, a young servant suspected of witchcraft. But Agnes has dark dreams of her own for this house.
Women, Beware the Devil is a deadly new play of treachery and trickery by The Sunday Times Playwriting Award-winner Lulu Raczka, author of Antigone and Nothing.
This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at the Almeida Theatre, London, in February 2023.
