The Crucible

The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, directed by Tazewell Thompson is presented by New York University, Tisch School of the Arts Graduate Acting Program and the Department of Design for Stage and Film.

At the heart of the Salem witch trails of the 1690s, John Proctor must choose between the value of his own name and his very existence. The Crucible is a play that, although it was written in the white heart of the McCarthy era, has not lost its ability to provide and inspire. One of America’s greatest plays and a challenging world to reproduce on stage.
