BWW Reviews: THE CRUCIBLE Examines What Can Happen When Fear Clouds Fact and Reason is Replaced by Blame
The Antaeus production highlights the play's universal and timeless themes by staging the play as presentation theater with the actors speaking directly to the audience, rarely to the person onstage to whom they are speaking. It is performed in conservative modern dress on a minimalistic set, making the words ring truer than in any other production of the show I have ever seen.
