Aber mal im Ernst: In Zusammenhang eines Inteviews über The Crucible muss er doch eigentlich irgendwie behaupten, dass er sich bereits seit längerem auf die Rolle des John Proctor vorbereitet? In Zusammenhang eines Interviews über das Theaterstück xyz würde er vermutlich auch behaupten, dass er sich bereits länger auf die Rolle des abc vorbereitet?

Tickets for The Crucible. I have them.

Set in the town of Salem, Massachusetts, where in 1692, 19 adults and two dogs were hanged for witchcraft, and one man was pressed to death for refusing to plead. The Crucible tells the story of one man's fight to save his identity in a repressive Puritan community.

Miller's play was inspired by the actions of The House Committee on Un-American Activities of the McCarthy era, in front of which the playwright was invited to give evidence. It was most recently seen in London at the Open Air Theatre in 2010, with Patrick O'Kane as Proctor.

Richard Armitage (Robin Hood, Spooks and The Hobbit) plays John Proctor and is joined by Anna Madeley (Earthquakes in London) as Elizabeth Proctor and newcomer Samantha Colley as Abigail Williams. The cast also includes Sarah Niles, Rebecca Saire and Zara White.

The Crucible is the third play in a new season of productions which are presented in-the-round at The Old Vic.
