SUMMARY:Profs & Pints Philadelphia: A Guide to Witches
DESCRIPTION:Profs and Pints Philadelphia presents: “A Guide to Witches\,” on the figure of the witch in history\, legend\, folklore\, and fairy tales\, with Linda Lee\, lecturer in folklore and literature at the University of Pennsylvania. \nGet ready for something spellbinding: A look at various depictions of witches as reflections of ideas about female sexuality\, independence\, agency\, and power. \nOffering up this pre-Halloween treat will be folklorist Linda Lee\, who previously has given excellent talks at the Black Squirrel Club in Philadelphia’s Fishtown on dark Christmas folklore and the goddess Persephone. \nWe’ll start with an introduction to witches from European folklore\, fairy tales\, and legends. You’ll learn how they’re generally portrayed as powerful\, solitary\, and defiant figures who can be either helpful or harmful. They may appear as mothers\, helpers who aid a hero on a quest\, or monsters to be vanquished. They can represent a threat to the community by snatching children or pilfering cows’ milk. \nIndividual witches who will be conjured up include the child-eating witch from Grimms’ “Hansel and Gretel” and Baba Yaga\, the ambiguous witch of Slavic folklore who lives in a hut on chicken legs and flies around with a mortar and pestle. \nLee will then contrast such fictional depictions with the ideas about witches and witchcraft espoused by Christian demonological thought. \nYou’ll learn how witches are described by early modern sources like Malleus Maleficarum\, the 15th-century treatise on witchcraft which also served as a witch hunters’ manual. Such texts present witches as entirely malevolent figures who gain magical powers through a pact with the Devil (usually signed with menstrual blood). The witches in them are believed to use a special ointment that allowed them to fly to a Witches’ Sabbath\, where they dance and perform demonic rituals. \nYou’ll see how such ideas were visually reinforced through engravings\, woodcuts\, and drawings\, by artists like Albrecht Dürer\, that depicted naked women riding broomsticks and dancing with devils. \nYou’ll come away with a better understanding of why witches are among the most versatile\, notorious\, and enduring figures from fairy tales and legends and remain an iconic part of contemporary Halloween traditions. Feel free to dress witchy if you wish. (Advance tickets: $13.50 plus processing fees. Doors: $17\, or $15 with a student ID. Doors open at 3 pm. Talk starts at 3:30.) \nImage: From “Preparation for the Witches’ Sabbath\,” by 17th Century Flemish artist David Teniers the Younger.

SUMMARY:The Wake: A Haunting Magic Experience
DESCRIPTION:“Unlike anything ever before” – Teller (of Penn & Teller). Using magic\, mind-reading\, and live music\, The Wake is a haunting\, immersive exploration of the space between life and death transporting guests beyond the veil. Perfect for Halloween season\, Philadelphia Magicians\, Musicians\, and Innovators Lindsey Noel\, Francis Menotti\, and Jon Gruver are bringing this spooky magical & musical theatrical immersive experience to Philadelphia’s SideQuest Theater for the month of October. Catch it hot off its invitational run at the 2024 Williamstown Theatre Festival as part of #WTFisNext\nMagic show? Seance? Concert? Play? Choose Your Own Adventure? Yes. Come experience The Wake for yourself – Tickets are limited per showing. \n*longer description*\nStraight from its successful invitational run at the legendary Williamstown Theatre Festival\, this haunting magical and musical immersive theatrical experience explores the space between life and death and invites all participants to sink into and revel in the unknown. Come along with the Director\, the Spiritualist\, and the Orator as you navigate the Deceased brain’s final firings. As electrical impulses continue beyond heart beats\, will anyone ever truly cross over or are we stuck in the seemingly eternal dream state of increasingly infinitesimal electric impulses? \nThe Wake\, a site specific immersive journey\, is inhabiting our space here at SideQuest Theater. Read below for a taste of what’s in store (or don’t – the choices start here)… \nYou step inside a theater in Center City Philadelphia. The stage is set in an unexpected fashion. The Director here at Daniel Graboli’s Funeral Practice greets you with the guest book and a funeral chip to mark your time at The Wake. Your evening celebrating the life of the lucky Deceased begins with beautiful music pouring from the Orator and filling the room. The Spiritualist may find you and offer you comfort or answers\, depending on what you seek in your time of need. \nThe veil slides back as the Ceremony begins and the sound of brooding accordion fills the room even more. You are compelled towards the sound only to be greeted by The Attendant\, whose aim is to elevate your experience with us here at Graboli’s. We begin as the Deceased is revealed to us all\, even themselves. Not an actor but a regular person – one just like you – only they are gifted this evening with the hope of transition from this realm into the next. \nMagic show? Seance? Concert? Play? Choose Your Own Adventure? Yes. \n“Unlike anything ever before!” – Teller (of Penn & Teller) \nCome experience The Wake for yourself.
