Story

At a high school in a rural town in Georgia, an English class is studying The Crucible, but the students are more preoccupied with navigating young love, sex ed, and a few school scandals. As they delve into the American classic, the students begin to question the play’s perspective and the validity of naming John Proctor the show’s hero. With deep wells of passion and biting humor, John Proctor is the Villain is a new comedy from a major new American voice, capturing a generation in mid- transformation, running on pop music, optimism, and fury, and discovering that their future is not bound by the past.

Amazing show with an amazing cast.
"As far as is it a good show for children, I would say for 15+. I found the show to be extremely relatable to what is going on at the present moment. The casting was perfect. There were plot twists I was not expecting. I laughed and also cried. Wonderful job to the cast and crew. "

Literature is real life
"The Crucible meets young women struggling with their identity in the pervasive patriarchy. Don't want to give too much away. Review the Crucible, (Spark notes) before you go. "

Hidden Gem
"Amazing. Blew my mind. The actors made this show. Very thought provoking. Very cerebral. I can’t say enough about how good it was. I would see it again. 5 stars. I believe future Broadway stars will be coming from this performance."

A thoughtful & well-performed presentation of a very sensitive subject.
"The ensemble cast was awsome, and the play was a very thoughtful look at issues raised by "The Crucible" but not widely examined. It went deeper and in a different direction than examining the HUAC hearings. Was John Proctor a hero, as we've all come to assume? Maybe not so much--and this play is a solid look at those generally ignored issues. (I'd read Arthur Miller's play and seen the movie based on it, which helped a lot in giving context. I recommend doing one or both before seeing this play.) "

A great timely piece
"This show is perfect for any gen z and parents of gen zers. It has a great message about dealing with the terrible things happening in the world and in our own towns. "

Well written and acted. Relevant to today.
"The reflection on connections among the 1600s, 1950s, and today are thought provoking. The play is very moving in parts and quite funny in others. The ensemble cast is talented."
