Photo Flash: Princeton Summer Theater's 48th Season Continues with Arthur Miller's THE CRUCIBLE

Princeton Summer Theater's 2017 season's third show opens next Thursday, July 27th with Arthur Miller's The Crucible. Regarded as a one of the foremost classics of American theatre, The Crucible uses the proceedings of the Salem witch trials to examine the manic effects of mass hysteria in society. As an increasing number of upstanding townspeople are accused of witchcraft, Miller emphasizes the contagious nature of fear and the elusiveness of truth. The 1953 Tony Award-winning play invites us to question the importance of upholding morality in times of hardship.
