This powerful play, based on a true story which took place in 1934 in the rural North of Portugal, dramatises the shocking events which led to the sacrificial burning of a woman accused of witchcraft. Published in 1959, The Crime of the Old Village posed a challenge to the oppressive Portuguese Fascist Regime and to the Catholic Church which legitimised it. In today s spiritually warring world, it retains its religious pertinence and political verve because of its exploration of fanaticism and faith driven crimes.T072460735Producer Alice de Sousa.
