Before Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, there was a real Abigail Williams – a child whose life was touched by magic – and evil | It’s Salem, 1691. Nine year-old Betty Parris and eleven year-old Abigail Williams’ churn butter, play with poppets, and whisper at night while strange noises emanate from The Woods in the darkness. As fourteen-year-old Mercy Lewis declares, “Satan is everywhere.” When Abigail starts working for a local farmer, John Proctor, the children’s world is turned upside down… THE GOOD JOHN PROCTOR reimagines the year leading up to the infamous Salem Witch Trials through the eyes of the girls at the center of it all. *Note this play contains mature themes and language and is not recommended for younger audience
