John Proctor Is the Villain— Utah Professional Premiere
by Kimberly Belflower
September 11-26, 2026
Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre
Play
A fierce, funny play about teenage girls rewriting the rules—and reclaiming their own stories.
Fueled by earbuds full of pop anthems, sheer determination, and a simmering sense of justice, five teenage girls are ready to confront the buried truths hiding in their small, single-stoplight town. A recent Broadway hit from playwright Kimberly Belflower, this bold, sharp-witted, and fiercely relevant play reexamines the stories we inherit and asks who gets to define what’s true — delivering a work that’s as entertaining as it is essential.
"A poignant story of girlhood and empowering friendships."
— Entertainment Weekly
"A bold contemporary reexamination of who gets to tell the story."
