The Crucible is a 1953 play by American playwright Arthur Miller. It is a dramatized and partially fictionalized story of the Salem witch trials that took place in the Massachusetts Bay Colony during 1692/93. Miller wrote the play as an allegory for McCarthyism, when the United States government persecuted people accused of being communists. Miller himself was questioned by the House of Representatives' Committee on Un-American Activities in 1956 and convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to identify others present at meetings he had attended.

(Associate Designer) Viva - Aenigma Theatre - 2017
Company: Aenigma Theatre
Director: Tanya Mathivanan
Stage Manager: Javier Sotres
Sound Designer: Scott Zechner
Lighting Designer: Chengyan Boon
Costume Designer: Alix Miller

Aenigma Theatre is partnering with Bright Young Theatre to present the premiere of this unique new work from local playwright Scott Button. It is a first production of an experimental format of script. Presented as akin to a duologue, the text alternates between dialogue in verse form and prose, with the two stories eventually blending into each other.
This play deals with very relatable universal issues by setting the stories in a hyper-realistic world and placing the characters in extreme situations. The heightened nature of these circumstances allows the audience to engage both cerebrally and viscerally, in order to examine the questions regarding the human condition as posed by the play.
