The Boundary Trial of John Proctor — Carolyn Gage

A oneâ€'act featuring the notorious antiâ€'hero of Arthur Miller's Crucible, and the women he exploited. John Proctor, finding himself in the boundary lands of patriarchy after his execution, encounters a second trial -- this time by the women. Proctor, who does not believe in witches, scrambles desperately for context as he is tested by his ex-wife, his mistress, a formerly enslaved Caribbean woman, the town baglady, the town bluestocking, and the town matriarch.
