The Crucible
Wayne State University Theatre and Dance stages Arthur Miller's classic The Crucible on Friday, March 26, at 7:30 p.m. at the Hilberry Gateway in Detroit. It's a gripping drama about the Salem witch hunt that still feels timely. Tickets are available online.
One of the most acclaimed plays in the American theatrical canon, it follows the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem. A young farmer, his wife and a young servant girl are at the center. The girl maliciously gets the wife arrested for witchcraft.
The farmer takes the girl to court to make her admit the lie. Instead of saving his wife, he ends up accused too and condemned along with many others. The play shows how bigotry and deceit spiral out of control.
The Hilberry Gateway is at 4715 Cass Avenue. The production is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
