John Proctor Is the Villain by Kimberly Belflower
Directed by Teresa Spencer
In rural Georgia at the height of the #MeToo movement, a high school English class is studying the classic of the American “Red Scare”, The Crucible. Against a backdrop of Lorde, Lizzo, and witch hunts, the half-century-old play suddenly feels a little too close for comfort. Heroes come crashing down and young people find their voices in this new comedy about power, sex, scandal, and who gets to tell the story. Presented by the Department of Theatre Arts and featuring a cast of Towson University’s undergraduate students.
