"Arthur Miller's 17th-century Salem Witch-Hunt is one of the Greatest Stories ever told."
Arthur Miller's timeless and historical allegory has been spellbinding audiences for generations. One of theatre's most celebrated contemporary texts, The Crucible (originally written in response to the phenomenon of McCarthyism and the “Red Scare” of the 1950s) remains eerily relevant in today's climate of fake news and culture wars.
A frightening depiction of what can happen when fear clouds fact and reason, this play is a frightening and exhilarating ride set during the puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem. This haunting production promises to keep you on the edge of your seat as hysteria, paranoia, superstition and malice descend upon the people of Salem.
Never has there been a play that better exposes the machinations of our societal constructs as, The Crucible. If you have never had the privilege of experiencing this cautious tale, you simply must get a ticket. You'll regret missing this season.
