The OCC Repertory Theatre Company Presents: The Crucible @ The Jay and Linda Grunin Center for the Arts
Apr 25 @ 7:30 pm – May 3 @ 9:00 pm
The OCC Repertory Theatre Company Presents: The Crucible @ The Jay and Linda Grunin Center for the Arts | Toms River | New Jersey | United States

The story focuses upon a young farmer, his wife, and a young servant-girl who maliciously causes the wife’s arrest for witchcraft. The farmer brings the girl to court to admit the lie-and it is here that the monstrous course of bigotry and deceit is terrifyingly depicted. The farmer, instead of saving his wife, finds himself also accused of witchcraft and ultimately condemned with a host of others. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play. This exciting drama about the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem is both a gripping historical play and a timely parable of our contemporary society. “A powerful drama.” -NY Times
