In the tiny New England town of Eastwick, Rhode Island, three modern day witches innocently plot and conjure over a heady brew of weak martinis and peanut butter brownies. But when their shared desire for "all manner of man in one man" arrives in the form of charismatic stranger Darryl Van Horne, all hell breaks loose. Quite literally. The Witches of Eastwick, with book and lyrics by John Dempsey, and music by Dana P. Rowe, is based on the 1984 novel of the same name by John Updike. The novel was previously adapted into a film in 1987, starring Jack Nicholson, Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer. Musical team, Dempsey and Rowe, previously responsible for the musicals, Zombie Prom and The Fix, came together once again to create the music.
