Winner of the 1953 Tony Award for Best Play, Arthur Miller wrote this piece as an
allegory in response to McCarthyism and the US government’s blacklisting of its citizens
accused of being communists. Using the Salem witch trials that took place in the
Massachusetts Bay Colony during 1692 and 1693, this play is partially fictionalized
and dramatized account of some of those events. This play has become an American
classic and a central work in the canon of American drama.
