John Proctor is the Villain

**Sadie Sink** stars in this bitingly funny new play from **Kimberly Belflower** that flips the script on the American classic and who gets to be the heroes in the stories we tell. <br> At a high school in a one-stoplight town in Georgia, an English class is studying The Crucible. The students, however, are more preoccupied with navigating young love, sex ed, and a few school scandals than what’s in their syllabus. But as they delve into this literary classic, the class begins to question the play’s perspective, especially whether John Proctor is the hero they’ve been taught he is. <br> Directed by Tony Award® winner **Danya Taymor**, _**JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN**_ is a new comedy from a major new American voice, capturing a generation in mid-transformation, running on pop music, optimism, and fury—and discovering that their future is not bound by the past.
