Due to technical difficulties beyond our control in the Roy W. and Elizabeth E. Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre, all performances of John Proctor Is the Villain will now take place at the Jay W. Lees Courage Theater at the Westminster Performing Arts Center, located at 1248 East 1700 South, Salt Lake City, Utah.
Ticket sales are currently on hold while we work on a software issue.
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."
