Événement
The Crucible
Widely considered a masterpiece, Miller's timeless classic challenges American ideas of power, intolerance, and justice. In the Puritan community of Salem, Massachusetts, a servant girl accuses a farmer's wife of witchcraft. One accusation spirals into many, uncovering a web of bigotry and deceit that changes their lives forever. Among the most produced plays since its 1953 debut, THE CRUCIBLE is both a gripping historical drama and an evergreen parable of contemporary society. The Los Angeles Times describes the play as "shattering, both massive and humane, as much a chiseled monument as a gut-bucket suspense story". How firmly, yet how gracefully, Miller's sturdy words and warnings still hold the stage. Blisteringly relevant to the times we live in, Miller speaks to universal fears of isolation, hysteria and the unknown. Come and find out why this spooky and powerful play has endured for 70 years!
"Although this political thriller was written in response to Americas mid-20th-century fever of McCarthyite witch hunts and the naming of names, there has never been a time when the play was not relevant". - Variety
