The
Crucible
Shaftesbury Avenue
London
W1D 6AR
Miller’s dramatic and
tragic play which tells of one man’s fight for his principles
during the Salem witch hunt of the 1690s. First staged in
1953, Miller’s play draws unflinching parallels between
the Salem witch hunts and McCarthyism in 1950s America.
The play stars Iain Glen as John Proctor,
whose fling with a teenage girl sets off catastrophic accusations
of witchcraft which affect his wife Elizabeth, played by Helen
Schlesinger, and ultimately force him to decide between saving
his life or his reputation.
