(218 minutes)
Captured live at The Old Vic in London, Olivier-nominated Richard Armitage stars in Arthur Miller's classic American drama The Crucible, brought vividly to life in this visceral five-star production by internationally acclaimed director Yaël Farber (Mies Julie, Nirbhaya). 
Based on Salem's infamous witch trials, The Crucible takes place in a small tight-knit community, where personal grievances collide with lust and superstition, fuelling widespread hysteria. Miller's timeless parable attacks the evils of mindless persecution and the terrifying power of false accusations.


The film itself is a coming-of-age comedy set in 1984 that follows the story of Danny Whitaker, a high school senior struggling with his future. Caught in a tug-of-war between his no-nonsense father and his crackpot guidance counselor, Danny and his band of misfit buddies head to the woods for the town's annual rite-of-passage fishing trip. After a wild party, Danny stumbles upon Goddess Camp, the urban legend of "skinny-dipping chicks" that so many horny high-school boys have fantasized about for years. Here he meets Alison, who helps him find the strength he needs to take charge of his own destiny.

--- Sketch & Improv Classes ---

Sketch Comedy has been the cornerstone for comedy creativity for many years, including Late Night talk shows, SNL, Monty Python, MadTV, and more. Join us for our Level 1 Sketch Writing course with veteran Stephen Hale. Students will get stage time to perform their material in front of a live audience at Drafthouse Comedy in DC and/or the Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse. Additionally, willing students can form in house troops and perform along national headliners as they continue to develop their skills. Time to get your creative comic juices flowing.

This course in an introduction to sketch comedy, writing short comedic scenes, rehearsing and working towards building a show that the students will perform in.  Each week students will explore different sketch formats and be asked, each week, to bring in a new sketch based on a specific format.
 
The goal of Drafthouse Comedy Level 1 Sketch Writing is to push students to not be afraid to fail in their writing, make big choices and take risks. Finding your own voice through the guidance and support of your teacher is what we strive to have you achieve.
 
The course will run for 8 total weeks.  5 weeks of writing, discussing and collaborating on new material.  2  weeks of rehearsing and exploring chosen sketches for the show and the final show, which will be held on the last day (8th week) of class.  
 
No prior sketch writing experience is necessary - the only requirement for this class is a desire to write, perform and learn.  Students should be prepared to work outside of class, writing new sketches, for the first 5 weeks of class. 
 
Class Size: Max of 10 Students. Tuesday 7pm - 9:30pm (May 23, 30th, June 6, 13, 20, 27th, July 11, 18th)
