Written by Arthur Miller, the story
focuses upon a young farmer, his wife, and a young servant-girl who
maliciously causes the wife’s arrest for witchcraft. 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
farmer, instead of saving his wife, finds himself also accused of
witchcraft and ultimately condemned with a host of others. 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.
