"The Crucible" by Arthur Miller is set in the Puritan town of Salem, Massachusetts, during the late 17th century. The play unfolds against the backdrop of the Salem witch trials, where a group of young girls, led by Abigail Williams, falsely accuse various townsfolk of witchcraft to divert attention from their own misdeeds. As hysteria spreads, the community grapples with themes of fear, morality, and the consequences of mass paranoia. The action highlights the conflict between personal integrity and societal pressure in a time of crisis.
