The Royal Players present their production of The Crucible, at the Royal Theatre. Performance dates and times are October 17th, 18th, 24th, 25th, 26th at 7:00 p.m. and October 20th and 27th at 2:00 p.m. This production by Arthur Miller is sponsored by Eiler Family Dentistry, directed by Hillary Bell and stage managed by Elizabeth Ray.
The story focuses on 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.
