The Crucible

Nineteen men and women - hardworking, compassionate, God-fearing and innocent - go to the gallows for being possessed by the Devil.  Desperate to save his innocent wife from accusations of witchcraft, John Proctor stands up for what he knows to be right - only to find himself isolated, imprisoned and condemned.  The Crucible is a thrilling tragedy about the purge of witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts - a terrifying historical account of hysteria, bigotry and deceit and one of the 20th Century's greatest plays. A true timely parable for our own society.
