Technology Partner 12:34 MicroTechnologiesĪrthur Miller (1915-2005) was born in New York City and studied at the University of Michigan. This exciting drama about the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem is both a gripping historical play and a timely parable of our contemporary society. Winner of the 1953 Tony Award for Best Play. The farmer, instead of saving his wife, finds himself also accused of witchcraft and ultimately condemned with a host of others.
The farmer brings the girl to court to admit the lie-and it is here that the monstrous course of bigotry and deceit is terrifyingly depicted. The story focuses upon a young farmer, his wife, and a young servant-girl who maliciously causes the wife’s arrest for witchcraft.
Based on the Salem Witch Trials of 1692, a village is plunged into hysteria after a string of accusations of witchcraft threaten the status quo and leads to a purge of anything perceived to be “different.” This dramatic story of coercion, justice, and consequences truly stands the test of time, and is sure to please audiences once it is given new life on the EPAC stage. See the Arthur Miller classic like you’ve never seen it before.
