Overview
This hit Broadway comedy, later adapted into a celebrated film, inspired the popular TV show Bewitched. In 1950s New York, a young witch named Gillian secretly performs feats of the supernatural. She casts a spell over her unattached tenant Shepherd, partly to keep him away from a rival and partly because she is attracted to him. Shepherd falls head over heels in love with her at once and wants to marry her. Unfortunately, witches cannot fall in love, and this minute imperfection leads into a number of difficulties. Ultimately, Gillian breaks off with her companions in witchery, choosing a “normal’ life of human love with Shepherd.
