Screen Acting Presents: The Method Crucible
The horrors of the Salem Witch Trials have caught our imagination for centuries and have now made their way to the stage of the Acting Lab on Open Window's Centurion campus. As a culmination of their work on character and the Method, the SA200 students present their version of Arthur Miller's famous play, with direction by Ilana Dlangalala-Cilliers. Come and experience the drama, the deception, and the danger!
