a| Deals with witch hunts in the 17th century. The play is set in 1638 at the home of the mayor of Haarlem. A divided Europe and a divided Netherlands also divide minds in the mayor's home. Religion and science face each other, as well as collaboration and resistance, and finally inner certainty versus uncertainty.

a| At the beginning of the 17th century, Stadholder Frederick Henry is busy laying siege to Antwerp. At the time, the patriotic Cousaert is the bailiff of Haarlem.
