Miller Play
CARROLLTON — Arthur
Miller's controversial play
“The Crucible’’ will be present
ed at West Georgia College on
May, 15, 16 and 17 under the
direction of Nelson M. Car
penter.
“The Crucible.” first play by
Miller following his Pulitzer
Prizewinning “Death of a
Salesman,” relates the tragic
events involved in the witch
craft trials in Salem, Mass., in
1692.
Mr. Carpenter said the play
is not recommended for young
people under the age of 16.
The spring production of the
West Georgia players will run
for three nights in the college
auditorium, beginning at 8
o’clock each night.
Sonny Burt of Coral Gables,
Fla., will play the role of a
colonial farmer whose stub
born demand for justice dur
ing the mass hysteria of the'
witch-hunts served to arouse
the hostility of the persecutors.
Leona Bolch of Atlanta will
be seen as the farmer's wife,
irresponsibly accused of witch
craft by a wanton girl — to
be played by Rosalie Seymour,
a member of the college facul
ty-

LaGrange.
The play tells how a quartet
of exhibitionistic young girls,
to escape the consequences of
having been caught in t h e
“sinful” pastime of dancing in
the forest, hurl accusations of
witchcraft at respectable mem
bers of the community —
accusations feverishly taken up
by adults with irresponsible
motivations.
Scores of innocents are
brought to trial by prejudiced
fear-ridden authorities. Those
who "confess" their guilt are
saved from death: 19 are con
demned to die.
When "The Crucible" was
first presented in New York
in 1953. it aroused a storm of
controversy because of obvious
parallels with the loyalty in
vestigations being conducted in
the early fifties.
