John Proctor is the Villain
By Kimberly Belflower
Fall 2025 Production Directed by Megan Frecceri, WVC Theater Alum
Genre: Modern/Contemporary

At a high school in a one-stoplight 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 the students delve into the American classic, they 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, this comedy captures a generation mid-transformation, running on pop music, optimism, and fury, discovering that their future is not bound by the past and that they have the power to change it all.

It looks like an open-and-shut case—until one voice casts doubts and challenges a deeper examination of the facts. In the sweltering jury room each person brings their individual histories, biases and prejudices to the table as they struggle to reach a unanimous decision that will decide one youth’s fate. Twelve Angry Jurors explores how our actions (or inaction) have consequences.
