Arthur Miller's THE CRUCIBLE starring Saoirse Ronan
Arhur Miller is one of the most prominent Amer playwrights of the 20th C ("Death of a Salesman" & "View From the Bridge.") He received the Pulitzer Prize for "Death of a Salesman." "The Crucible" is a timeless parable about morality dealing with the Salem Witch Trials and McCarthyism. The cast includes Tony winning actors & Acad award nominee Saoirse ("Brooklyn".) Original score for the play is by Philip Glass. Glass is one of the most influential composers & musicians of the late 20th C. The major incredients for a memorable theaterical experiences were all in abundance. Nonetheless, watching this oppressive, holier than thou, blowhard show was odious. Never my favorite Miller play, I will never again subject myelf to this erudite miss hit.
