The Buzz Intro Interview

Melissa Simmons - Founder

Witch Cake offers a unique, immersive experience that places the audience at the center of a tense, high-stakes narrative. You’ll be drawn into a world of fear, suspense, and moral uncertainty, where the fate of those on trial is uncertain. As the tension builds, you’ll be left grappling with a haunting question: Who will survive, and who will be condemned? This experience will challenge your perceptions, provoke thought, and leave a haunting impression long after it’s over.

Fringe festivals are great because artists are not beholden to any type of regulatory body - there are literally no rules!

Witch Cake is inspired by the need to examine history, challenge assumptions, and explore the darker side of human nature in a way that’s both engaging and thought-provoking. We wanted to create a show where we can confront these uncomfortable truths, while still being swept up in a visceral experience.
