Witch Fulfillment: Adaptation Dramaturgy and Casting the Witch for Stage and Screen delves into the multifaceted portrayal of the Witch in contemporary North American theatrical and cinematic landscapes. Through the lenses of casting, design, and adaptation, it explores the enduring patterns and desires behind these representations. By examining the Witch's roles in classic plays such as The Crucible and Macbeth, feminist adaptations like Sycorax, Obeah Opera, and Jen Silverman's Witch, as well as popular culture offerings like the Scarlet Witch and Jinkx Monsoon, this book uncovers the rich dramaturgical meanings of adapting and embodying witchy roles in the twenty-first century.

It sheds light on the enduring fascination with the Witch, exploring the ways in which she continues to be reimagined and reinterpreted in the performing arts, challenging traditional notions of gender, power, and identity.
Through its comprehensive analysis, Witch Fulfillment offers valuable insights into the complexities of portraying the Witch on stage and screen, providing a rich resource for practitioners and scholars alike. It encourages a deeper understanding of the Witch's enduring appeal and the ways in which she continues to shape our cultural imagination.
