The Crucible
Wayne State University Theatre and Dance stages The Crucible on Saturday, March 27, at 2 p.m. at the Hilberry Gateway on Cass Avenue in Detroit. Tickets are available online.
One of the most acclaimed plays in the American canon, The Crucible tells of the Puritan witch hunt in old Salem. A young farmer, his wife and a servant girl are at its center, and the girl maliciously gets the wife arrested for witchcraft.
The farmer takes the girl to court to make her admit the lie, but instead he gets accused too, and the machinery of bigotry and deceit keeps rolling. It works as a historical tale and as a timely parable. The production is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
