About the event

Booth Theatre, Broadway
Revenge. Righteousness. Rewrites. At a rural Georgia high school, a group of students reading The Crucible begin to question everything—including John Proctor himself. John Proctor Is the Villain, by Kimberly Belflower, is a fiery, hilarious new play that reframes the American literary canon through the eyes of a generation discovering its own voice.
Sadie Sink (Stranger Things, The Whale) leads this provocative production, directed by Tony Award winner Danya Taymor (The Outsiders), in a story that explores modern youth, identity, and power through sharp debate and an irresistible pulse of pop culture, rebellion, and truth-seeking.
Already a seven-time Tony Award nominee, this fresh Broadway debut reconsiders the stories we’ve inherited—and who gets to tell them.
