Oakton Theater Presents 'The Crucible'

The Performing Arts at Oakton presents Arthur Miller’s classic play The Crucible, Oct. 16 –19 and Oct. 23 –26, at Oakton Community College’s Footlik Theater, 1600 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines.

Written in the 1950s during the height of McCarthyism, Miller’s play is set against the backdrop of the Salem witch trials in the 17th century. Themes of paranoia and abuse of power make this award-winning play relevant and riveting.

Regular performances of The Crucible are 8 p.m., Friday, Oct. 17 and 24; 8 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 18 and 25; 2 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 19 and 26; and 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 23.

Tickets are $12; $10 for students and seniors; and $8 for groups of 15 or more. A $5 preview performance will be staged at 8 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 16.

To reserve tickets, call the Oakton Box Office at 847-635-1900.
