One of Arthur Miller's most famous and most accessible plays. Set in the 17th Century Salem witch trials, this play was originally intended as a metaphor of the McCarthy trials in 1950's America. A group of girls set off a chain reaction of hysteria and prejudice when they accuse neighbours of withcraft.The true motive of their leader Abigail is more personal. Today this play has a contemporary voice that speaks of prejudice and powerful human passions.
