I am 14 and playing Hathorne in my high school play...I was looking for something to base mine off of so thanx :) also my script is the Dramatists Play version....so in mine its Act 2 Scene 1...
@coRnThEdOg1 I portrayed Hathorne at our local Opera House production, but took the time to do some research on the life of the judge. I concluded that, at the time of the trials, he was an angry man who actually was the head of the court in Salem Village. The part of Danforth was written to encompass the other 6 judges who were involved. Hathorne was the only 1 who never recanted for what he did. He died in 1717, believing he had done the right thing during the trials.
@DeedsResearcher cool man...we finished the play but next year we are doing beauty and the beast musical so i am pumped for that haha..but i dont know what play we are doing..so ya
This is actually Act II Scene 2. Arthur Miller's Original Script called for a scene with the woods between Proctor and Abby. That is Act II Scene 1. I'm very impressed with this performance. Well done!
This is Act 3 scene 1 unless my modern classic version is incorrect and I think not. In any case it certainly shows the blocking and stage directions quite admirably. As a teacher, this is an invaluable resource for my students. Thank you for sharing. The students liked some of the actors too.
@LiteracyLabyrinth No, this is act 2 scene 2. The performance edition published by Dramatists Play Service presents it as a two act play. Legally, playhouses have to do the two-act version--virtually identical to the Modern Classic edition, which merely reworks bits of dialogue to make the allegories more understandable in a classroom setting. So while your comment is incorrect, you weren't wrong in stating that, in the MC edition, this is Act 3.
