Greg Chapman’s Discovery of Witchcraft

21st November
Diseworth Village Hall, Hall Gate, Derby, DE74 2QL

A show of magic, storytelling, history, comedy and thought.

In 1584, Reginald Scott released his book 'The Discoverie of Witchcraft'.

The book aimed to expose the truth bebind what was believed to be witchcraft at the time, including a section detailing the methods used by magicians to create their effects.

He hoped this book would put an end to innocent people being tried, imprisoned, and hanged for Witchcraft.

It would not.

Greg Chapman's new show combines magic, storytelling, history, comedy and more to talk about Witchtrials from the 15th Century through to the 20th Century, and does so in a way that is entertaining, informative, and thought-provoking!
