No – its not Shakespeare – it’s the Discworld, but given that this world holds a distorted mirror to our own, is the Bard turning in his grave or giggling with delight?

Wyrd Sisters

Witches are not by their nature gregarious (well except perhaps for Nanny Ogg). They certainly don’t have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the most highly-regarded of the leaders they didn’t have, but even she is about to find that meddling in royal politics is a lot more difficult than certain playwrights would have you believe…

Blasted heaths; three old crones (well two old crones and a young one in training); bloody murder with spots that refuse to be erased; usurping Kings; vanishing heirs to thrones; political manoeuvrings; all-knowing Fools; plays within plays; truth within lies etc. etc.

No – its not Shakespeare – it’s the Discworld, but given that this world holds a distorted mirror to our own, the question is:- “Is the Bard turning in his grave or giggling with delight?”

"Pamela Munt as Granny Weatherwax is suitably disapproving, casting a gimlet eye over all proceedings, Natalie Haigh as Nanny Ogg brings warmth and much enjoyed comedy timing and Alycia Rabig is sparkling as the winsome, innocent, trainee ingénue witch who, somewhat predictably, has to fall in love with an unlikely, love-struck Danny Sag, resplendent as The Fool in an authentic Jester’s costume."

Jude Hines - Stage Whispers

"We expect layers and depths of truths within a deceptively humorous frame, and Unseen Theatre Company delivers this. Stand out stars were Aimee Ford as the selfish, bullying Duchess, Danny Sag as the Fool, Philip Lineton, with passion and fire as the Chamberlain, and Pamela Munt, who simply is Granny Weatherwax "

Christine Pyman - Broadway World

Wyrd Sisters, comprising of the razor sharp Granny Weatherwax (played by Pamela Munt), the naughty Nanny Ogg (played by the hilarious Natalie Haigh) and the innocent Magrat Garlick (played by Alycia Rabig) are at the centre of this play......... This production was anything but amateur. Timing and a strong comedic element all aided in creating something truly magical.
