Purchase Repertory Theatre “The Crucible”

Salem, 1692. A group of young women accuses their fellow townspeople of witchcraft, and innocent men and women must choose to confess or hang. What happens when a government is disposed to believe in lies? Purchase College’s student repertory company whose talent – in the words of Peter Kramer of The Journal News — “is Broadway bound” – are the next generation to put a fresh spin on Arthur Miller’s mid-century masterwork.
