The Crucible

  • Sir Thomas Allen Assembly Rooms Theatre 40 North Bailey Durham, England, DH1 3ET United Kingdom (map)

The timeless classic parable of mass hysteria draws a disturbing parallel between the awful high strangeness of 1692 Salem, 1950s McCarthyism, and our own paranoid society.

When a group of girls are caught dancing in the woods, they begin accusing others in the town of witchcraft to avoid punishment. When these accusations spiral out of control, paranoia abounds.

Everyone must choose between integrity and their own survival.
