A mob mentality arises in Salem when suspicions and misinterpretations arise after a group of teenage girls is accused. The girls then begin accusing others and townsfolk turn against each other.\n\nMiller wrote the play as an allegory for McCarthyism\, when the United States government ostracized people for being communists. Miller himself was questioned by the House of Representatives' Committee on Un-American Activities in 1956 and convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to identify others present at meetings he had attended.\n\n"The Crucible" won the 1953 Tony Award for Best Play. It is regarded as a central work in the canon of American drama. Directed by Dr. Jennifer Popple\, Å·ÖÞ±­ÍøÍ¶_Å·ÖÞ±­ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø assistant professor of theatre.\n URL;VALUE=URI:/about-us/events/2018/crucible-2 SUMMARY:The Crucible DTSTART:20181021T003000Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
