  3. The Crucible


Based on the Salem Witch Trials of 169293, this Tony Award-winning allegoryoriginally inspired by Millers own experiences with McCarthyismresonates anew in the dynamics of a decentralized, digital society. Reimagined for a contemporary world, the production draws on dance and digital technology as the physical and virtual worlds collide, the roles between observer and observed are blurred, and fear is an ever-present undercurrent. As a play that was borne of protest, The Crucible uses the context of one time in history to mirror another, says director Michael Socrates Moran. This production seeks to do the same, protesting how we often devolve into dehumanization in the name of purity, behind the guise of a digital world. This production asks us to reckon with the universally human impulse to scapegoat another, and what dignity and integrity still cost in todays world.
