A cozy family home is created on stage: the kitchen, complete with a refrigerator from the late 1940s and a cellar under the floor, is at the front, and a small flight of stairs leads to two small bedrooms overhead. The once-white front door is now covered in dirty streaks, a testament to the many years the family has lived in the house. This is the setting for one of the most important plays of the 20th century, Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman.

Arthur Miller’s The Crucible still has the power to spook theatregoers, almost 60 years after it premiered on Broadway in 1953. Set in Salem, Massachusetts during the famous witch trials, the play draws a connection between the frenzied allegations during that time in puritan New England (1692) and the Communist scares of the McCarthy era, in which Miller himself was convicted for refusing to name names.
