Listen to KCME’s Culture zone segment on The Crucible featuring Kelly Walters :
Arthur Miller’s timeless classic of “witch hunts” and “accusations” receives a poignant new staging this Spring at the MAT. Re-imagined under the direction of Kelly Walters (To Kill a Mockingbird”, 2014)
“Written as a thinly-veiled condemnation of the Communist “witch hunts” of his time, Arthur Miller perceived, brilliantly, that time and distance can pierce through the prism of history and light the way to a universal understanding: that hysteria, impulse, and fear can sweep up the innocent, and, in its aftermath leave a taint of despair and spiritual regret. And that, ultimately, it is the collective community which must bear the responsibility.” –Kelly Walters
THE REVIEWS ARE IN!
“Millibo Art Theatre’s current production of The Crucible is a powerful cautionary tale of the abuse of power that results from a disinterest in truth. Millibo’s small venue puts Miller’s tale of fear, frustration, and injustice mere feet from our seats. The close connection between actors and audience is exactly what Miller intended: his unthinkable tragedy becomes disturbingly real.”
