The Crucible @ The Lace Market Theatre
Details
When a vindictive lie unleashes a campaign of state-sanctioned terror, and when sanctimonious piety becomes obligatory, it falls to a self-confessed sinner, John Proctor, to call out the lies. But will anyone believe him?
Arthur Miller’s award-winning play asks us the most troubling questions. Written during the McCarthy witch-hunts of 1950s America, it dramatises events surrounding the witch trials of the 1690s in Salem, Massachusetts and still stands as a warning from history.
This visceral, gripping play takes us into a desperate, dangerous world, where everyone is implicated, and nobody is safe.
Contains themes which some may find distressing
