“John Proctor Is the Villain” by Nashville Repertory Theatre

What if the villain is not who you thought? In this dramatic comedy from Nashville Repertory Theatre, a high school English class reexamines Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible” and sparks a reckoning. As teenage girls debate John Proctor’s morality, their conversations expose uncomfortable truths about consent, credibility and the stories society chooses to protect. The show runs Thursdays through Sundays, Oct. 2 – 18, inside TPAC’s Johnson Theater (505 Deaderick Street, Nashville). Tickets start at $45.53.
