NTL: The Crucible

Captured live from the National Theatre in London.
A thunderous new imagining of Arthur Miller’s parable of power and its abuse, with Erin Doherty (The Crown) and Brendan Cowell (Yerma) as John Proctor and Abigail Williams.

A witch hunt is beginning. Raised to be seen but not heard, a group of young women in Salem suddenly find their words have an almighty power. As a climate of fear, vendetta, and accusation spreads through the community, no one is safe from trial.

Lyndsey Turner (NTL’s Hamlet) directs this contemporary new staging, designed by Tony Award-winner Es Devlin (The Lehman Trilogy).
