What starts as a group of local girls escaping the rigidity of their everyday lives, quickly spirals into community-wide hysteria with ‘witches’ being found at every turn. As more and more people are condemned to death, can John Proctor convince those in power that the girls accusing his family and friends are frauds, led by a girl hell-bent on replacing his wife?

For over 50 years, Arthur Miller’s tale of the events leading to the Salem witch trials in 1692 Massachusetts has enthralled audiences and still presents a compelling view of how society reacts to the perceived threat of the unknown.
