It’s 1692 in Salem, Massachusetts, and the Salem witch trials have consumed the town with hysteria.
When Elizabeth Proctor is accused of witchcraft, her husband, John, must combat a whirlwind of fear and suspicion to save her - and himself - as a tide of doubt crashes down around them.
Communities are torn apart, neighbours turn against neighbours, and paranoia reigns supreme in Arthur Miller’s timeless masterpiece.
