HASTINGS — “Abigail,” a story by Robert Aguiree-Sacasa that starts 10 years after the “harrowing and tragic events of the Salem witch trials,” takes the stage for several performances starting Thursday, Oct. 31. Show times are 7:30 p.
m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and 2 p.m.
Sunday, Oct. 31 through Nov. 4, in Scott Studio Theater at Hastings College.
In this Hastings College Theater presentation, Abigail Williams — the lead accuser who sent 20 people to their doom as a young girl — now lives under an assumed name on the outskirts of Boston, quietly striving to atone for her sins. But any contentment is short-lived, for someone is coming for Williams, someone who has been looking for her since she danced in the weird woods of Salem.
