The Crucible celebrates its 7th Anniversary with another sizzling Fire Opera staged in the industrial vastness of The Crucible's 56,000 square feet studio space.

Watch the sparks fly as our heroine Anna descends into seven American cities, each one introducing a new deadly sin. Caught between two worlds, Anna struggles with the reality of having to earn money to build her family a new home in Louisiana and her inner desire to create art. As she moves through her journey, weighed down by family pressure and the evils of consumerism and capitalism, she is confronted by the "Greek chorus" of her demanding kin, countered by the urge to succumb to temptation. Will Anna resolve her conflict or fall into spectacular flames of sin?
