COMMONWEALTH is what you would get if you combined The New World’s immersive environment, The Tragedy of Macbeth’s gripping suspense and The Sixth Sense’s spiritual minimalism.
The Landscape
In 1685 Scotland, a catastrophic drought triggers brutal witch hunts, leading Pastor Callum Hughes into a harrowing ordeal as his family faces a horrific fate at the stake. Miraculously spared, Callum endures a grueling journey as a Galley Slave, ultimately finding himself in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, aiding the Abenaki Natives in their fight against the English. Amidst a haunting encounter with Abigail Williams, Callum grapples with guilt and redemption, which leads him to the heart of the infamous Salem Witch Trials. Forged in the crucible of the trials, Callum undergoes a profound metamorphosis, culminating in an epic homecoming to Scotland where vengeance gives way to an extraordinary display of mercy.
“COMMONWEALTH” is about the shared humanity and universal experiences that transcend geographic and cultural boundaries. Despite the characters’ diverse backgrounds and the historical conflicts they face, the show underscores the common threads of resilience, forgiveness, and the endurance of the human spirit in the face of suffering and adversity. The title thus serves as a poignant reminder of the intrinsic bonds that unite people, even in the most challenging and divisive circumstances, highlighting the universal themes of redemption, compassion, and the pursuit of justice.
