Five young women running on pop music, optimism, and fury, are about to shed light on some of the darkest secrets in their one stoplight town. From playwright Kimberly Belflower, Tony Award®-winning director Danya Taymor (The Outsiders), and starring Sadie Sink (Stranger Things), JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN is “an urgent new play about a group of students battling for the right to be the narrators of their own lives” (The New York Times).
