This was tough. I've been conscious that casting the Crucible well is hugely important. The need for the right person in the right part is fundamental to getting it right. Everybody has seen a play where somebody who just wasn't right for the part. It can kill the whole thing and leave the audience detached from the performance. So, with that in mind, we set off in to reading for the parts of Abigail, Mary, Mercy, Suzanna and Betty.
The people who read did so with great conviction and passion. It made for a really interesting and competetive read. It also gives me great confidence that that pivotal groupof girls will carry a lot of the momentum of the play.
Anyway cast part one are in order of appearance:
Betty Parris Marie Morrissey
Suzanna Walcott Catherine McVicker
Abigail Williams Rachael Culligan
Mercy Lewis Jennifer Williams
Mary Warren Juanita Guidera
