Halloween doesn't have to end in October! Venture to 1692 Salem to have an eerie and terrifyingly good time.

 

Longmeadow, MA—  Something wicked comes this way, right into Mills Theatre for Bay Path University’s presentation of The Crucible.  Be afraid. Be very afraid.

 Set during the witch trials of the 1690s, The Crucible is a timeless parable of morality, a scorching indictment of intolerance, and one of New England’s greatest horror stories. The people of Salem are whipped into a bloodthirsty frenzy by a series of escalating misinterpretations after a group of teenage girls is accused of dancing devilishly in the woods. Fearing retribution, the girls begin a chain of finger-pointing until neighbor turns against neighbor, whispers become testimony, fabrications become facts, and a once powerless girl suddenly has the ability to decide the fate of all those around her.

Debuting on Thursday, November 7 at 7:30 p.m., the show will also run on Friday, November 8 at 7:30 p.m., Saturday November 9 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, November 10, at 2:00 p.m. Please note: This production of The Crucible contains mature language, themes, and content that is not appropriate for younger audiences.

The show will be held in Mills Theatre, located in Carr Hall, on the Bay Path Longmeadow campus, at 588 Longmeadow Street, Longmeadow, MA. Audience members are encouraged to dress in their most spooktacular costume to make for another epic and extended Halloweekend!
