The Crucible
Core Theatre Productions What starts as a group of local girls escaping the rigidity of their everyday lives, quickly spirals into community-wide hysteria with ‘witches’ being found at every turn. As more and more people are condemned to death, can John Proctor convince those in power that the girls are frauds, led by a girl hell-bent on replacing his wife? For over 50 years, The Crucible has enthralled audiences with the tale of how nineteen men and women were executed on Witches Hill in Salem, Massachusetts and still presents a compelling view of how society reacts to the perceived threat of the unknown. |
