Arthur Miller’s Tony award winning classic play delves into the Salem witch trials of 1692. The plot centers on the hysteria that erupts when a group of girls, led by Abigail Williams, accuses fellow villagers of witchcraft. As the trials progress, the town is consumed by fear, paranoia, and a distorted sense of justice.

Miller’s narrative not only captures the historical context of the Salem witch trials but also serves as a powerful commentary on the dangers of mass hysteria and the consequences of blind conformity. The play remains relevant today as a cautionary tale about the fragility of justice and the ease with which fear can be manipulated for political or personal gain.

The running time for The Crucible is approximately three hours and includes one intermission. The Crucible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children under the age of 12.
