The Salem Witch Trials
Come to Life on Stage

Written in the early 1950s, Arthur Miller’s play “The Crucible” takes place in Salem, Massachusetts during the 1692 Salem witch trials. This was a time when paranoia, hysteria, and deceit gripped the Puritan towns of New England. Miller captured the events in a riveting story that is now considered a modern classic in theater. He wrote it during the “Red Scare” of the 1950s and used the Salem witch trials as a metaphor for the “witch hunts” of communists in America.
