  3. John Proctor Is the Villain


Written soon after the #MeToo movement entered the national conversation, this momentous, touching, and laugh-out-loud funny play explores themes of trust, betrayal, and the abuse of power as experienced by a group of high school friends. Set in a small Georgia town where everybody knows everybody else’s business, John Proctor Is the Villain focuses on the students in a high school literature class, and particularly on a group of girls who have strong and sometimes complicated friendships with each other. As the students discuss Arthur Miller’s The Crucible with their beloved teacher Mr. Smith – and as they explore, in an after-school club, what feminism means to them – they begin to see echoes between this classic American play about the Salem witch trials and events unfolding in their world. As those events come to a shocking climax, their assessment of the heroes and villains in The Crucible, and in their own lives, changes forever. Written by Kimberly Belflower Directed by Halena Kays
