"John Proctor is the Villain" is a compelling theatre production set to take the stage at Fisher Theater from April 20 to 26, 2024. Crafted by Kimberly Belflower, this modern drama unfolds in present-day Appalachia, where a high school class's study of "The Crucible" morphs into a riveting exploration of power, love, and sex education amidst a swirling community scandal. This thought-provoking play, noted for its adult language and content, promises to engage audiences with its timely examination of societal themes.

Performances are scheduled for April 20, 25, and 26 at 7:30 pm, with a matinee on April 21 at 3:00 pm. Adding to the theatrical experience, "John Proctor is the Villain" will be performed in repertory with "The Crucible," offering audiences a unique opportunity to see both plays and draw connections between them.
