The Crucible
By Arthur Miller
Directed by Emily Cole and Maz
Neamand
One of the most acclaimed plays in
the American theatrical canon, this exciting drama about the Puritan purge of
witchcraft in old Salem is a gripping and timely parable of contemporary
society, as well as a studied historical tale. The story focuses upon a young
farmer, his wife and a young servant-girl who maliciously causes the wife’s
arrest for witchcraft. The farmer brings the girl to court to admit the lie –
and the monstrous course of bigotry and deceit is terrifyingly depicted. The
farmer, instead of saving his wife, finds himself also accused of witchcraft
and ultimately condemned along with a host of others.
