It seems an easy job… After all, how difficult can it be to make sure that a servant girl doesn’t marry a prince?
But for the witches Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick, travelling to the distant city of Genua, things are never that simple…
Servant girls have to marry the prince. That’s what life is all about. You can’t fight a Happy Ending.
At least – up until now…

The production is now SOLD OUT

Sold Out? Already?

I know. We are as surprised as you.

All our previous Discworld shows had sold out by the time we staged them. The most recent two (the first ones to have totally on-line booking) had sold out within 36-48 hours (which was, for an amdram group, alarmingly quickly!).

Like all small amdram groups, we know we can't take anything for granted. For Witches Abroad, we had had no indication at all of the potential level of interest. There are now so many amdram groups staging our Discworld plays that we knew not to take anything for granted, and we put a lot of effort into promoting it early, to try to raise interest.

Witches Abroad sold out completely in just a little over three hours!

This was insanely fast, wholly unprecedented and just a little bit scary.

ACCESS AT THE UNICORN THEATRE

Disabled Access. Please do note the Theatre is part of Abingdon's medieval Abbey Buildings - a scheduled ancient monument. There are lots of steps and awkward changes of level throughout the building. There is, effectively, no wheelchair access and the buildings do pose major challenges for anyone with mobility issues.

The Theatre does have plans to improve accessibility, but work is unlikely to start before 2026.
