This autumn, The Castle Players present The Crucible by Arthur Miller - an intense, timeless drama of suspicion, power, and paranoia. Performed in the evocative setting of St Mary’s Parish Church, this production marks the long-awaited directorial return of Libby Harding, and it promises to be unforgettable.

 

Libby’s vision is both sharp and bold. Stripping the play back to its raw core, she leans into the unsettling atmosphere of Miller’s 17th-century Salem, where a community turns on itself in a frenzy of fear and accusation. Lighting and sound will heighten the tension, while a stripped-back set and muted costuming allow the story - and its performers - to take centre stage.
