The Paisley Witches Trails act as a starting point in this exploration of femininity, why femininity is feared and what the power of femininity can contribute to the world. An intimate multi-art form theatre production combining community and professional performers, singers and musicians.

The project is funded through Renfrewshire's Culture, Heritage and Events Fund as part of Paisley's bid for UK City of Culture 2021.

'When, however, one reads of a witch being ducked, of a woman possessed by devils, of a wise woman selling herbs, or even of a very remarkable man who had a mother, then I think we are on the track of a lost novelist, a suppressed poet, of some mute and inglorious Jane Austen, some Emily Bronte who dashed her brains out on the moor or mopped and mowed about the highways crazed with the torture that her gift had put her to. Indeed, I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.'
Virginia Woolf, A Room of One's Own
