STARKVILLE, Miss.—Theatre 91´«Ã½ will conclude its 2016-17 season Thursday-Saturday [April 20-22] with 7:30 p.m. performances of Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible†on the university’s McComas Hall main stage.
General admission tickets are $10 and may be purchased at the door prior to each performance or in advance at . Group rates are available upon request.
Set during the Salem witch trials of the 1690s, “The Crucible†is a timeless parable of morality, where the accusations of witchcraft by the young girls of Salem spin out of control and quickly become a game of life or death.
“The Crucible is an American classic that is as relevant today as it was when Miller first penned it,†said director Tim Matheny, an 91´«Ã½ assistant professor of theatre.
“It is a story that needs to be told, and I am proud to join my fellow colleagues and students in bringing it to the 91´«Ã½ stage,†Matheny added.
