The Crucible

Using the witch hunts of Salem as a metaphor for the power of theocracy, this continually relevant play explodes with the passion, fear, and danger of a time when even the accusation of political crime led to catastrophic consequences. As a vicious teenage seductress takes revenge on her lover and his wife by accusing them of witchcraft, a violent clash ensues between the worlds of intolerance and the power of truth and redemption.
