Story

At a high school in a rural town in Georgia, an English class is studying The Crucible, but the students are more preoccupied with navigating young love, sex ed, and a few school scandals. As they delve into the American classic, the students begin to question the play’s perspective and the validity of naming John Proctor the show’s hero. With deep wells of passion and biting humor, 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.

A very nuanced depiction of a very complicated subject
"Loved the characterization. Very subtle nuances and layers made me think. Excellent play and great for little kids even though there is cursing. "

A Must See!
"Picked this show for the incredible cast, loved it not only for them but for the story. It tells the story so many are familiar with and yet don't really examine outside of English Honors classes in high school. This book and play should be mandatory reading along with The Crucible in all high schools. Emotional, hysterical, awkward, moving, thought-provoking. Why do we make John Proctor the hero in that story? If you really look at it, maybe he is the villain. Will have you dancing by the end. May not be suitable for children less than 12 (language/themes)."

Brilliant Play!
"This play was absolutely amazing! The actors and actresses were great! The topic and language would not be appropriate for young children, but teenagers and adults would love the humor! I really don’t think that there are any bad seats in the theater. This was one of the best Broadway performances I’ve seen. "

I didn't expect to be this moved
"Hearing the themes, I worried it might be cheesy. But it wasn't even a little. It was beautiful and made me cry and smile and feel a catharsis I didn't know I needed. The performances were also just phenomenal. I have never seen a Broadway show twice, but I have already bought my tickets to see this again before it closes."

We Loved John Proctor
"My wife and I absolutely loved this play. We sat mesmerized for two hours and, along with the entire audience, rose for a standing ovation at the end. The casting was brilliant. The premise behind the play is smart and topical. And the acting was top notch. I had no expectations going in. But John Proctor is a Villain is one of the best plays we have seen in years. "

You are all winners!!
"During the final scene it took everything in me not to jump up out of my seat and dance along with the “ teenagers” on stage. I taught these kids. I miss these kids. Thanks for a tender, revealing and joyous ride from start to finish."
