THE CRUCIBLE // 14-18 MAR
One of the 20th century’ s landmark plays, Arthur Miller’ s The Crucible stands as both a historical record and a political parable for our times. In a small 17thcentury New England town a children’ s game has terrifying consequences as allegations of witchcraft break out. Quickly caught up in an unstoppable flow of paranoia, accusation and manipulation, the community is consumed by a climate of suspicion where no person is safe from its neighbour. An allegory of the chilling McCarthyism of American politics in the 1950s, The Crucible also serves as a warning to future generations. Enter the world of sensationalism, hysteria and the power of celebrity that was the Salem Witch Trials and ask yourself how innocent we can really be as we stand by and watch a witch-hunt unfold.
