MY WITCH:
The Margaret Hamilton Stories

June 27-30, 2024

MY WITCH: The Margaret Hamilton Stories is a one-woman tour-de-force starring New York’s Jean Tafler as America’s greatest character actress (and iconic Maine resident) Margaret Hamilton. Enjoy a magical visit with Maggie as she spins stories of a life and career where the Wicked Witch of the West was only the beginning! If you love Maine…if you love The Wizard of Oz…if you love the theater and everything Hollywood, this show is a valentine to them all. Find out how a gentle kindergarten teacher from Cleveland became the most iconic WITCH of all time, and yes, scared the living daylights out of every last one of us!

Thrilling, entertaining and interesting...Jean Tafler gives a brilliant, Tony Award-worthy performance, effortlessly displaying her talent, skills, and gifts as an actor. MY WITCH: The Margaret Hamilton Stories is a must see!"

"The play packs a full wallop of heartwarming, poignant, and often funny insights into the personal and professional life of the Wicked Witch."

"Tafler strikes just the right note from the moment of her entrance, with an uncanny resemblance to the actress herself…I might just have to see this again, the play is that good!"
