Agnes Sampson stands accused of witchcraft in Edinburgh as she is brought to trial for attempting to kill the king. Listen to the evidence and cross-examine the witnesses as you delve into the mindset of 1590s Scotland. You decide. The first of the witchcraft trials that condemned over 2,500 (mainly) women to the rope and flames of persecution to help establish the protestant faith in Scotland. This true story will ask you to sift through the evidence and listen to both sides as you decide the outcome of the case. A must-see for Edinburgh audiences.
