East West Theatre: The Crucible @ La Bota Bund Docks
Arthur Miller's timeless classic 'The Crucible' is a powerful depiction of how intolerance and hysteria can intersect and tear a community apart. 'The Crucible' has over the years found resonance with several issues across countries and cultures, and remained relevant. It is still one of the most-performed theatrical works around the world.
