Acting and theatre design students at Charles Sturt University (CSU) will go on the road to local schools with The Crucible by celebrated American playwright Arthur Miller. The University Theatre Ensemble (UTE) will present The Crucible to local HSC students. It follows two recent public performances at the Drama Studio at CSU in Wagga Wagga. The production involves final year students in Acting for Screen and Stage and final year students in Design for Theatre and Television. The play is directed by lecturer in acting, Mr Thomas Papathanassiou from the School of Communication and Creative Industries at CSU in Wagga Wagga. UTE will perform at Tumut High School on Friday 9 August, Junee High on Wednesday 14 August, Wagga High on Thursday 15 August and Kildare Catholic College on Friday 16 August. The HSC students will be able to draw on the talents of the CSU students during question and answer sessions after the play. Miller’s play dramatises the Salem witch trials of the late 1600s. UTE’s production of The Crucible explores the ‘destruction of innocence and challenges our every notion of good and evil’.
