A big thanks to @brightonrocksfilms for the honourable mention of our music video for Rollercoasters on The Moon. With love to our amazing cast and crew!

To my wonderful cast and crew, what a truly spectacular experience. It was a true joy to be trusted by @theatrearcana to compose and musically direct ‘The Witch & the Whistleblower’ — it has been one of the great joys of my life. To work with absolute professionals, who also were caring and full of good humour — a wonderful little family of the best humans. To see everything develop from nothing to something exceptional, with critical and commercial success, is quite extraordinary.

With masterful writing, pinpoint direction, sensational producing, dynamic choreography, marvellous costume and design, expert stage management and performances that transcended each and every night — it was sheer magic.

Thank you @theglitch_se1 for hosting our show and to your wonderful staff for keeping us so well looked after.

To my dear friends and collaborators, I will be forever grateful for this experience and hold you all close in my heart.

✨ MEET THE CREW ✨

JAKE DUFTON is... MUSIC DIRECTOR🎶

About Jake:
Jake Dufton is a multi-award-winning composer and filmmaker. He has written several musicals and musical films, such as A Surgeon’s Photograph (2018), Cabinet Dance (2019), and Every Waking Moment (2023), which won Best LGBTQ+ Film at the Manchester International Film Festival and was screened at BFI Flare 2023. He was also nominated for Best Score for The Devil’s Ball (2023) at the 48 Hour Film Project.

Jake has also seen success with his band, @thekidsinspacesuits, having won Best Music Video at the Cardiff Mini Film Festival, London Director Awards, and the Wrap Film Festival for Ace (or “I Wanna Be Like Sophie Aldred”) (2025). Their new album, Sound of the Engines, was released on March 1, 2026.

His compositions can be heard across many short films and online advertisements, such as the MUBI-selected Topos (2025). Jake has found it exhilarating to return to the musical theatre space to write and musically direct this show with such a talented and versatile cast and crew, and it has been a wonderful excuse to think pretentiously about melody, motifs, and all things musical.

The Witch & The Whistleblower is a new folk musical, inspired by the true story of Marion Walker and Margaret Aitken.

❤️‍🔥The Glitch, Waterloo, London
🗓️8th - 20th April 7pm
🎟️11th & 18th April 2:30pm

The year is 1597; a time when gossip can kill, whispers become poisonous and speculation becomes a sentence. A woman, accused of being a witch, can save herself by condemning others. A community is crumbling. A man plays god with a lie. A woman fights back with the truth.
