John Proctor is the Villain

Anyone else seen this in London? I found it powerful, especially the final scene. A play with an impact.

Resonated strongly with some things that I witnessed at school. And of course the Crucible.

some may find it triggering.

Good performances, especially from the lead young woman, the only jarring thing was the American accents, not bad per se but not natural and given the material took away from it a little at times. Would really like to see it again with an American cast.

It is transferring to the West End for 12 weeks, which is brilliant. Recommend!

I missed it at the Royal Court but will definitely see it in the West End. I adore Donal Finn and hope he transfers with the play; I saw him in Hadestown a couple of years ago and knew he would be a star.
