Mary Warren hesitates to testify for Elizabeth because she is afraid of the repercussions from the other girls and the authority figures in Salem. She fears that standing against the group will lead to her being accused of witchcraft or facing severe social ostracism. Additionally, the intense pressure and fear surrounding the witch trials make her wary of challenging the status quo.
The Crucible is a play written by Arthur Miller about the Salem witch trials. In this play, Mary Warren is brought into court to testify on the behalf of Elizabeth Proctor during the third act.
Proctor insists that Mary Warren testify in Elizabeth's defense because he believes that her testimony can help prove Elizabeth's innocence against the false accusations of witchcraft. He recognizes that Mary, as a key witness who participated in the court's proceedings, holds crucial information that could discredit the claims made by Abigail Williams and others. Proctor is motivated by his desire to save his wife and expose the truth behind the hysteria in Salem. Additionally, he sees this as a way to reclaim his integrity and confront the injustices happening in their community.
