Synopsis The Crucible,
set in Salem, Massachusetts, is Arthur Miller's powerful and
haunting drama that compares the McCarthy hearings of the 1950s to
the Salem witch hunts of 1692. Petty bickering, a bit of dancing,
affairs, all lead to accusations of witchcraft amongst the
townspeople. Family stresses and small-town intrigue lead to false
confessions, despair and the ultimate consequences
Notes The Crucible
first opened on Broadway January 22, 1953, at the Martin
Beck Theater. Arthur Kennedy, Madeleine Sherwood, Walter
Hampden, Beatrice Straight, E G Marshall & Fred
Stewart trod the boards. The Crucible has had three revivals
on Broadway, 1964 at the Belasco
Theater, 1972 at the Vivian
Beaumont Theater and, most recently in 1991, again at the Belasco,
in which Martin Sheen and Maryann Plunkett played the leads
