Becky Nurse of Salem
By Sarah Ruhl
If spooky season is more your thing, check out Becky Nurse of Salem by Sarah Ruhl, a modern spin on Miller’s The Crucible that delivers both chills and food for thought.


The Sound Inside

By Adam Rapp
Cold, sparse, and contemplative, this piece recalls the feeling of bare trees and biting wind, as a professor and her student are drawn into an inextricable bond.

By Stephen Mallatratt
Terrifying, and unabashedly theatrical, this adaptation of a Gothic classic delivers one of the best twist endings of any stage play.
