The Crucible, in 30 seconds or less, depending on how fast you read
good show darlings
thank you to all who came.
for those who didn't see it, here it is summed up:
ACT 1
Carole is almost dead.
Alyx is sweet an innocent and beautiful.
Annna is worried about Carole and yelling a lot.
The girls smack Carole around for no apparent reason.
Alyx is terrifying, and then she hits on Teddy a lot.
Carole screams because it's weird and icky that Alyx is hitting on Teddy.
Anne Marie is old.
Maddie has dead babies.
Nick is his usual typecasted ass hole (but not drunken this time!) self.
Enter Tackes with a funny line about Carole flying out the window.
Enter me with lots of books.
We blame everything on the best scapegoat the simple minded farmers of the 1600s can thing of, Betsy, the only black girl around. Yessah she be from Barbados.
I exercise the demons out of everyone. Yay for me.
ACT 2
Nora is Teddy's wife.
It's really awkward because they both know Teddy hasn't been following his commandments very closely. (I mean come on, Alyx is just so beautiful!!)
Marry Warren, (Amanda,) is a confused little girl, and she kind of freaks people out.
I come in and question their christianity.
Trevor is a genius.
We've started condemning people to hang.
Devin and Alex come in and drag Nora away.
Teddy has this amazingly passionate couple of sentances directly into my eyes that almost made me cry every time he said them.
Teddy nearly beats the crap out of Amanda... for maybe the third time in the play.
ACT THREE
Enter Kelly accompanied by Darth Vader music.
Anna's all "I HATE PROCTOR!" and Kelly's all "SHUT UP, ANNA" and I'm all "LISTEN TO THE FARMERS" and Teddy's all "ALYX IS A WHORE AND I'M A LETCHER" and we all go GASP and then Alyx is like "AAAH, A BIG BIRD!" and we all forget our lines, but then Marry Warren is all like "PROCTOR IS THE DEVIL" and Teddy's like "YOU BET I AM!" and I storm out of the courtroom and now all the good guys are in jail.
ACT FOUR
Maddie and Betsy are drunk and worshipping satan cows.
Anna and I have formed Team God.
We all make Nora talk to Teddy.
Nora and Teddy have this extremely passionate and moving scene that makes everyone in the audience cry.
but we kill Teddy anyway.
the end.
