Come see Arthur Miller's exploration of the 1692 Salem Witch Trials, The Crucible, as performed by talented SOCSA students from Dana Hills High School, under the direction of SOCSA Drama Teacher, Pattie Sexton, at the Porthole Theater on October 23, 24 and 25 at 7 pm.

When Abigail Williams (Taylor Wahl) is held in suspicion of witchcraft, she in turn levels charges against John (Aston Reyes) and Elizabeth Proctor (Paige Simon). Sara Standen, as Anne Putnam, and a talented cast of SOCSA Juniors and Seniors give a fantastic performance you won't want to miss.

Using the historical subject of the Salem Witch trials, Arthur Miller's play The Crucible (written in 1953) presents an allegory for events in contemporary America. The Salem Witch Trials took place in Salem, Massachusetts in 1692, and were based on the accusations of a twelve-year-old girl named Anne Putnam (Sara Standen). Putnam claimed that she had witnessed a number of Salem's residents holding black sabbaths and consorting with Satan. Based on these accusations, an English-American clergyman named Rev. Parris (Jason Roeder) spearheaded the prosecution of dozens of alleged witches in the Massachusetts colony. Nineteen people were hanged and one pressed to death over the following two years.

Tickets for The Crucible are $12 for adults, $10 for students/senior citizens and you are encouraged to BUY TICKETS ONLINE NOW. Last minute tickets will be available for sale starting at 6:00pm just prior to the performances at the SOCSA Box Office at Dana Hills High School.
