witchcraft
raze
there
are
three
of
them
.
in
a
room
furnished
with
threadbare
desks
and
chairs
,
they
sit
and
listen
to
their
mentor
speak
.
she
tells
them
a
drama
class
will
serve
as
a
suitable smokescreen
for
honing
the
gifts
they've
been
given
.
the
nascent sorceress tasked
with
production design
is
crestfallen
.
what
she
fails
to
see
is
just
how
integral
her
role
is
to
the
entire
enterprise.
she's
responsible
for
creating
a
world
an
audience
can
lose
itself
in
.
the
lessons
are
simple
enough
.
to
cry
on
cue,
singe
your
wrist
with
one
flaming fingertip.
if
levitation
gives
you
pause
, cast
a
spell
to
transform
the
stage
into
a
wading
pool
.
should
anger
overtake
you
,
an
afternoon
spent
in
a
sensory deprivation tank
will
calm
your
restless
mind
.
theatre
has
always
harboured
in
its
histrionic
heart
something
supernatural
.
why
not
imbue
the
lie
of
performance
with
a
truth
only
you
can
know
?
