10 Arthur Miller’s classic parable of mass hysteria draws a chilling parallel between the Salem witch-hunt of 1692 – one of the strangest and most awful chapters in human history – and the McCarthyism that gripped America in the 1950s. THE CRUCIBLE is a story of how the small community of Salem is stirred into madness by superstition, paranoia and malice, culminating in a violent climax, is a savage attack on the evils of mindless persecution and the terrifying power of false accusations. By Arthur Miller | Directed by Hunter Wall By arrangement with Music Theatre International Australasia Pty Ltd, on behalf of Arthur Miller.
