Literature - Drama Text - The Crucible by Arthur Miller

Based on true events, Millers' play focuses on the Puritan village of Salem in Massachusetts in 1692. Hysteria breaks out as the tight-held community are ripped apart with accusations which change the course of their history.


Blog your thoughts about the characters, themes and the play as a whole...







Made into a film in 1996, starring Daniel Day Lewis (spot him anywhere else on this blog?) and Winona Rider - it was nominated for two and won Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, Joan Allen.
